[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is there so much antipathy towards people in marriages who choose to take care of their children as their primary and best use of their time on earth. We only get one shot at parenthood. Children are our legacy on earth when we die. The total lack of respect for people who choose to prioritize their time for their family over earning more money is shocking to me. [/quote] Sigh.[/quote] +1 Because women are fully capable of succeeding in the workforce and as mothers. Because there is zero evidence that staying home has any long-term benefit for the children. Because marriages should be built on a foundation of equality and respect. Because we all know someone like OP - a family friend went from a successful law career to SAH to ilving on a friend's couch. I agree with the earlier PP who said have some pride. It's 2019 and we still don't know that a man is not a financial plan?[/quote]
