[quote=Anonymous]OP make her see it from your own perspective. It is easier to make her understand that increasing your work hours will be too stressful for you than to make her understand that she will not be a very good SAHM. I would love to be a stay at home parent, but it is just not feasible for the kind of lifestyle that I'd like for my family without putting too much stress on my husband. My husband does not want to work more than 45 hours a week. And I will not make him do that because he enjoys spending time with our kids as much as I do. He does at least 50% of the chores as well. The only fair scenario is that we both work a full time at not too stressful jobs to bring in the kind of money that can sustain our current lifestyle.[/quote]
