[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised to hear "so many men" want their wives to SAH. I think some baby boomers may, but for most younger people all of that went out the window with present-day economic realities.[/quote] Then why are there so many SAHMs in this area??? [/quote] Because this area is relatively affluent and not representative of the country at large.[/quote] Because the cost of childcare is astronomical around here, and the traffic is terrible. Unless the SAHP makes over $80k or so, almost all of the second income money will go to childcare and transportation costs, all for the grand privilege of never seeing your kids except between 6:30-8 pm, after spending hours in traffic getting to and from work and daycare, then rushing through dinner and a bath.
