[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point is parenthood is a job in itself, add a career/job to it and it is stress fest. Few people with 2 jobs are enjoying their life. They struggle.[/quote] I agree. We did struggle a lot and were unhappier when I was WOHM. Things became radically better once I became a SAHM, though the HHI took a big hit. If I would have had the benefit of telework and flex job, I probably would have remained in the workforce. I am not espousing that women SAH, because the kind of stress you get when you don't have money is not a laughing matter. A lot of things has to go right in your life, finances and marriage to reach a state where a SAHM is secure, valued and happy. But if women had the flexibility to be a SAHM when they wanted to and then go back to being a WOHM and working seamlessly without too much penalty that would be paradise. [/quote]
