[quote=Anonymous]If you (OP or others) aren't home for dinner every night, how many hours/minutes do you see your kids every day? I SAH, but DH eats breakfast with us in the morning, and is home for dinner every night. If he didn't get those two+ hours with the kids at night, he wouldn't even know them.... and I can't imagine that he'd feel all the work was worth it if he's MIA every night. That's how we live... but compared to some, we're practically impoverished at about $190K gross. Of course, we don't really feel like we live in poverty b/c our house and cars are paid off and we have $0 credit card or other debt. I think it IS about choices... we choose not to be on a fast track b/c we like to have down time and be involved with our kids. BTW, I'm the lawyer in the family (the one who SAH -- so, yes, you can take the lower paying lawyer job if you want to... but that's a choice.)[/quote]
