Ok.  DH makes 90k.  We saved a lot before kids and bought a 1.8M house in a good school district.  Mortgage is under $300.  We rent out a room and that brings in 15K - that's my play money.  Kid's colleges are almost funded, but we're also saving for grad school.

I really wanted to quit but didn't think DH would be okay with it.  Turns out, he really wanted me to stay home as well.  I worked the first year after our first child was born and our other children, so I spent more time with, are much smarter and less socially awkward.  I regret working when the first was a baby!

My kids can do so much with me that other kids miss out on.  So many nature activities, trips, and even just snuggles make a difference.  Playdates and preschool give them social interaction.

But this isn't low income.  This is high net worth and low salary.  If, God forbid, something bad happened, you could sell your house.  I think it's arrogant to put yourself in the same boat as OP.  OP doesn't have "play money."  [/quote]

The PP is not telling the truth, and has derailed OPs thread. Also, not a good parent. [/quote]
