[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - why don't you try to find a different part-time job or try to make it work so that you can stay home? I work part-time from home. I have three kids. All my friends who work full-time are exhausted. Many of them gave up working full-time after the 2nd or 3rd child. IT was just not worth it in terms of the hassle, the costs of daycare, the cost of work clothes, etc etc. Really, if you want to stay home, unless you are a single parent or your spouse in unemployed, I bet you could make it work to live on one salary. This prob. means a lesser standard of living, but not being stressed is worth it.[/quote] I hate when people say, "Why don't you just find another job?" like it is that easy. It is VERY difficult to find meaningful part time work that actually pays enough to offset daycare. [/quote]
