[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Omg. Your husband makes so much. I would do it in a heartbeat. [/quote]

But she doesn’t actually want to be a SAHM, if so, she could have done it all along. She wants to be a lady of leisure now that both her kids will be in full time school. I know exactly the type. [/quote]

This. The normal progression is stay at home from birth through Kindergarten, then start some sort of work again when kids are in school. You don't wait until the hard part is done and then decide to stay at home. [/quote]

Exactly. The kids missed the major benefits of having a SAHM during the most important (and hard) time. At this point just be transparent that you want to relax and enjoy yourself. Men aren't fooled either. [/quote]

Why not? Who is to say what the “normal” progression is for each family. I think when kids are in elementary school it’s a perfect time to be a SAH parent.  You can help out at school/activities and not be as stressed in general. If I were in your shoes I would go for it in a heartbeat. (Maybe do something very part time to keep your foot in the door though). GL![/quote]
