[quote=Anonymous]I stay home because I have a high needs child - just short of special needs - and a husband with a high income. When the needs became apparent, we sat down and took note of our options. It was clear then that our son would need a great deal of support in order to do well. It was equally apparent by then that DH was on the path to earn 6 figures+ over time. My salary was going to be very good as well but would never reach 6 figures because of the career that I was in. We made a decision that I would stay home and double down on helping our son. I think I look lazy to most people. I am very well educated and I have stayed home the last 10 years. My DH has made it into that 6 figure+ range. Our son has had numerous issues, some of them have been personally tragic to him. His issues are not ones that are apparent to school or peers. So thats a good thing but his life is not easy by any means. By transference, that means that our life isn't easy even though it looks plentiful to the outside eye. I will throw out that I think a decent number of SAHM's are like myself. There are things going on that can't be easily talked about .. and yes... the DH's earn a lot. So it makes it possible to for us to stay home and manage the mess. [/quote]
