[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The one in which both parents are happy and it works for their family. There is no "ideal." My spouse has a decent income but lots of flexibility. I SAH. He'd gladly SAH if I had the earning potential. No hired help ever.[/quote] This exactly. The one where both spouses appreciate each other and no one feels pushed into anything by the other’s decisions. I think that Option A is getting a lot of winners here because no one is ever being forced into anything. There is no breadwinner that wants to quit or parent with a big career that feels forced into being mommy-tracked. But the other options all work well too. Whatever works for the family works as long as both partners are on the same page and respect and value each other. [/quote]
