[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quit.  Make sure your husband keeps paying your own 401k.  Plenty of smart moms to concrete with as SAHM.  I'd do it on a heartbeat if I were you.  Life is short.[/quote]

How can I keep a 401(k) if I am not working?  [/quote]

Not the PP, but I do a spousal IRA. Its not much (I think $5K a year?) but its better than nothing.

Regarding divorce:
1st of all, its not like you wouldn't have a few months to find something if you saw things headed down that path
2nd of all, I believe the judge takes into account what you are able to earn when calculating child support/spousal support
Lastly, your kids are only getting older, so going back to work in a few years would be much easier

I would do it. Find a part-time preschool for your child that requires you to walk in to do pick up/drop off (you don't meet anyone in carline.) Join a MOMS club or other playgroup. Even though its awkward, get braver about asking nice moms you meet randomly if they'd like to have a playdate. You can always just say, want to meet back here same time next week? Building a network takes time and work, but its a requirement to be a reasonably sane SAHM. I have a pretty good network and I'm still only partly sane.  LOL. [/quote]
