[quote=Anonymous]I get a kick out of some posters believing all one has to do is declare to your boss you are going to go part time, telecommute, find a better job that pays double what you make yet still go part time or telecommute. You people have DCitis and don't know how the real world is. My husband's admin tried the above. She was fired. Last I heard she was working for another company and working longer hours for less pay. And those 10 plus years of vacation time, sick days, whatever ? They no longer count in her new job. She's starting over from scratch. When the decision to become a SAHM is made, sacrifices kick in and it's not easy. OP's in a particularly painful position. The reality is she cannot quit working because her husband's health doesn't allow it. We all didn't marry Mr. Money Bags. Her wants no longer matter. Life is mean sometimes. [/quote]
