[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just don't feel comfortable knowing that my life is made entirely possible by someone else's largesse.  I've always felt this way, even as a child when I realized some moms don't work outside the home.  It's an uncomfortable feeling.  [/quote]

It is interesting to read your post.

I have never felt like that at all.  I feel that HHI is for the entire family and as an important part of my family, I have not worried about who is financing whom.  If my paycheck was as large as my DH, he would probably made a better SAH parent.  Of course, as an adult, if my family needs my paycheck I will provide that too, and I guess the same applies if I did not have a family or funds and had to financially support myself.  Since my family needs me at home and we do not need my paycheck, I am absolutely fine staying at home.  I cannot even imagine feeling as a child that I was living on the largesse of my parents.

My DH works because he likes what he does and he likes his job.  My staying at home makes his life easier too and he is thankful for that.   [/quote]
