[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You won't regret it.

Your kids are the most amazing thing you will ever create.

Trust me, that once they are teens and young adults leaving home, you will look back not regret one moment you put them first.

I have never met a mom who looked at her adult children and wished that she had spent more time at her job and less time with her kids.

If you are able to tighten the family budget to spend a few precious years with them while they are young, either as a full time stay at home mom, or through a part time or flexible gig job, do it.  It might be hard in the moment, but you won't regret it looking backwards.[/quote]

This. I took over a decade off. You won't regret it.
We were careful with money at the beginning and then spouse's career took off. By the end, I went back less because of career/money and more because the kids were becoming independent  and I wanted something stimulating to do.[/quote]

This actually tells me you are only mediocre at your job and didn't have much to contribute to society other than to leach off your hesband.[/quote]
