[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don’t need to work based on spouse’s income (high 6fig) but want to, not because I really love working but [b]because of everything I hear about needing to stay independent. [/b][/quote] OP, it sounds like you are being peer pressured into working. Stay home with your baby. Consider yourself lucky that you can and ignore all the scare tactics. Make some stay at home mom friends and search out articles/books sympathetic to your lifestyle. I really like Caitlin Flanagan's book "To Hell with all That." You will be able to go back to work someday. I'm not sure what you do, but there are lots of freelance opportunities out there - you might find something that you can do part-time from home while your child is little. [/quote]
