[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Best decision I made in our marriage was to stay at home starting when our first of three was born. I saw the way things were going fairly early on and recognized that although I could “have it all” with a career - it was going to come at a cost trying to balance everything. Still happily married nearly 20 years later. [/quote] It only works if you don't value having a career. I do, so I didn't quit. I just didn't do things on the second shift that had no value to me, and outsourced a lot. Of course, I did only have two children, which helps a lot with domestic workload. [/quote] It only works if your Paycheck Provider spouse is grateful and thankful for you doing everything on the homefront so he can mainly focus on his job and career, and saying HI to the kids when convenient. [/quote] +1 The SAHP must be appreciated and respected by the working parent. Not the opposite and get neglected, dumped on, blamed.[/quote]
