[quote=Anonymous]I SAH for five years, kept my contacts, and so was very lucky to go back. At first it was consulting projects when needed, then part-time and now full-time. My DH never once made me feel less than nor ever resented me doing so. We discussed before kids and it’s what we both wanted for our family. As you are coming from the non-profit or NGO world in refugee sector, with salary limitations most likely for the duration, I would SAH now and go to grad school to get an education degree to teach ESOL. You’d likely make 45k in the surrounding jurisdictions, have snow days, holiday vacations, and summers off to be able to provide the care your family needs as if your dh makes partner he likely will not be around. This way, you could work but not have to pay daycare ( or very little.) Use this time to explore other paths. Or, have a heart to heart with DH and get him to be honest about how or if this changes your relationship. Good luck. [/quote]
