[quote=Anonymous]I would go crazy as a SAHM, but not because I think it's beneath me. On the contrary, it's one of the hardest jobs I can think of. I would go bananas. I love my kids, but I need my "adult" outlet. OP, if I were in your position (and I have frequently dreamed about my husband having an income like yours does, oh my ... instead he pulls down 60K), I would probably quit my FT job, but start a PT gig from home doing something that really inspires me, and I'd probably hire someone to help with the kids a few hours a day while I do that. That would help me scratch that itch I have to engage in more esoteric pursuits and give me time to recharge so that when I get to Chutes & Ladders I'll be fully engaged. And I would get to spend more time with my babies. I do love my career path (if not necessarily the job I'm in right now) but I hate that I only get to see my kiddos a few hours a day. [/quote]
