[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a SAHP. Children are not in school 10 hours. During that time I cook, clean, take care of our paperwork and my spouses parent. Plenty to do during that time. Until kids are away, if you actually parent and spend time with your kids, put them in activities, etc. it is very much a full time thing. I do it all so my spouse can further their career and do what they enjoy doing.[/quote] Almost every single public school I can think of goes from 8-3 which is 7 hours not counting the bus ride. Privates are even longer. Add in sports/band/theater practice after school and that can easily get to 10 hours. But let's say 8 hours: you really do 8 hours of cooking, cleaning, paperwork? You are literally putting in full-time effort to enable your spouse to build his career? Where do you find time for DCUM?!? Let's "pretend" for just a moment that you really are the full-time assistant hero that makes his career possible. Now imagine you STOP DOING ALL OF THAT. Wouldn't your spouse's career collapse? I mean, how could he possibly continue working and being successful, bringing in the same paycheck, without you doing all that full-time behind the scenes stuff that you want ongoing credit for? Point being: once you stop "propping up" his career, why would you expect he could continue making all that money WITHOUT a full-time assistant? yet you expect to do nothing at all for him yet get paid forever a 40% alimony from his ongoing career? Thank GOD alimony is almost eradicated throughout the entire country. Equality, ladies.[/quote]
