[quote=Anonymous]I've never gotten any comments from SAHMs about working, though I had one SAHM friend imply that you could get by on one income if you were just thrifty enough (her DH makes around $70 K or so). She's right that it can be done, but I prefer an additional level of financial security. Both DH and I have mid level jobs that pay $60-70K per year, so we're not super rich, though we are comfortable and have money set aside, not paycheck to paycheck. I'm also a teacher, so I'm working 75% of the year and I do get to SAH more than many working mothers. So I question how many of these snide comments actually happen, and think maybe some of it is just people wanting to fight about stuff. [/quote]
