[quote=Anonymous]Most high earners need to marry a sahm or a person with a flexible job. I have 3 kids and two high earners just wouldn’t work (unless we’re taking millions and you have a nanny + housekeeper). At least once a month I’m called from one of their schools or daycares that they’re sick and I need to pickup in 15 min. A lot of people cannot drop important client meetings or surgeries like that. Or they are completely unreachable (my dh). Amongst dhs coworkers, most are married to low earning but still jobs that we get a lot of personal enjoyment and success at. Like Feds, teachers, NGOs. That’s not to say that high earners make bad husbands. Dh is home every single night for dinner with us, he coaches sports and he takes all the kids to school (I work 6-2:30). The best advice I’ve heard recently was not to marry a man who wants a wife and babies. Marry a man who wants to be a husband and a father. [/quote]
