[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody regrets being a SAHM. [/quote] Are you kidding? I do. I went back to work in part because a sahm of older kids down the street, someone i liked and admired and who seemed to have a great life, said she regretted staying home and felt that she was trapped and had no options for the future.[/quote] My mom was a SAHM and then my Dad was diagnosed a brain tu or and couldn't work for an extended period. He had a risky surgery that could have killed him or left him permanently disabled but fortunately worked though the recovery was rough. Insurance doesn't cover everything. The savings were totally wiped out. It took mom time to get another job in addition to everything else. If you do decide to be a SAHP, the working parent especially needs very good life and long term disability insurance. [/quote]
