[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't persuade my husband to let me be a SAHM. We discussed it and we both decided that it was what was best for our family. He has a very demanding job outside of the home and we agreed that I would stay home and deal with all things kids/house (except maintenance) and animals. He knows his life is much easier because I stay home. He's never called for kid emergencies or has to stay home when they are sick or deal with Dr. appointments. He also earned about 10x what I did at the time. [/quote] That’s exactly how it was for me. There was no persuading on my part. It allowed him to never say no to anything at work. It made things simple for him. Until he decided he wanted to “pursue his other options” this worked very well. Now I work full time, but still do 100% of things for the kids. He never gets calls from their schools or needs to do doc appointments. [b] Instead of being his wife, I’m now just the paid help who ensures he is never inconvenienced.[/b] [/quote] That sounds miserable. [/quote]
