[quote=Anonymous] [quote] And I think [b]that's why you see a lot of love for A in this thread, because I think it is a way of hedging bets. No one totally gives up their career. No one shoulders the financial burden alone. No one shoulders the parenting burden alone. The allure of an egalitarian marriage is pretty obvious, even when it means having less money than other options[/b].[/quote][/quote] Exactly. I tried staying home. I was miserable doing all of the parenting alone, and I didn't feel comfortable not earning any money. Right or wrong, I'm not comfortable being totally reliant on my spouse's career. Turns out he's a really good parent, and egalitarian feels right for our household.[/quote]
