[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm another  totally fulfilled, happy stay at home wife and mom. My kids are all school aged. Our home life simply works better with me at home. And I love it![/quote]

In some respects I think our home life would be better too if one of us stayed home - instead of two stressed parents trying to do two jobs, you have a division of labor. On the other hand, my relationship with dh is stronger in some respects now that I am back at work.[b] When I was home, I tended to focus on him too much because he was my only conduit to the adult world. This was both positive and negative - I craved his company,[/b] but I also focused any resentment on him.

Still, if we had all the money in the world, I would try staying home for a year or two. As it is, I feel I owe it to our kid to stay economically viable on my own, in case anything happens to dh.[/quote]

Didn't you have friends?

ick[/quote]

Of course I have friends, but this was on maternity leave and I did not have much ability to spend time with them in the same way I could pre-baby. Far from the kind of adult interaction at work. Also, you are a mean girl. "Ick."[/quote]

I never said I was nice.[/quote]
