[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're resentful of spouses who get paid to "work" from home and do nothing. [/quote] DH calls me a SAHM with a paycheck. I've been working from home for the 15 years. I make a decent salary and am able to do kid pick up/drop off, laundry, grocery shop, and get dinner ready. He thinks it great. I look at us as a partnership. The more stuff I get done around the house when I'm home, the more family time we have. [/quote] Same. I have one in college now and one in HS. The amount of extra $, benefits and my own very large retirement count ($3million) while being home when kids were out of school, etc. had been great. I have sons and it also is great to see both parents chipping in financially and around the house. I did not “need” to work but couldn’t imagine not. I was raised to have a career by generations of women that did more than just be housewives. No divorces in the family either. [/quote]
