[quote=Anonymous]ok first, yes, I agree with PP that if you like being SAHM, then it's not like you'll need MORE money. Also don't forget the tax implications of that…you may get in a higher tax bracket and then all the $ will be going to pay for the nanny (as was in our situation) Also the kids are a bit young, imo, if you wait until they are in full day school, it would be a lot easier for everybody. Anyways I was in a similar situation and I chose to stay SAH and I'm ok with it. I've been told I'm wasting my degrees and have blown my career…I'm still ok with it. For me I had to come to terms with that part…the part where some people, (former colleagues) thought (and think) I was a loser, or a bad role model for my DD. It's hard not to internalize that stuff; I spent years working on my education and my career. But I've found my spot. Let us know what you decide to do, OP![/quote]
