[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two camps. If you’re in the [b]SAHM middle class camp[/b], it is probably more comfortable to stay around others in the same camp. Everyone will be frugal, feel privileged to stay at home, support their working spouse (usually the husband), and look a little tired and frazzled from being home with kids. In 2-earner families, the vibe is different. The moms usually look more professional but may be a little out of touch with the PTA or latest school stuff, they tend to have more organized activities instead of play dates. I was a SAHM before my divorce and am working now so I see both camps and have been in both. [/quote] This camp is just practical. They don't make enough for working to really make any sense...literally, they will earn just enough after-tax to pay for childcare so what's the point.[/quote]
