[quote=Anonymous]OP, I hear you! I work full time, have three kids 11, 8, 5, and a husband who makes more than me. I never thought I would be the type to stay home but after becoming a mom, I have thought about it often. Taking care of three young kids and working full time can leave anyone exhausted and unable to think clearly. Having a 2 year old is utterly tiring. You must be so exhausted! So, here’s the advice I would give myself: *Hang on! Things get better as kids get older. *It is not all or nothing. There is a third way. Try to pivot to something else, even if there is a pay cut, it is better than going $0 income. *If you really want to quit, delay it a year. In the meantime, live on your husband’s income and save all of yours (with childcare expenses maybe all is not feasible but as much as you can). [/quote]
