Helen Troy said:In the begining, I loved it. But after two weeks, I found that my whole world had shrunk and my head with it! When I started screaming at my man for not noticing the clean floors when he came home from work, I realised that Icould never be my life. Three more weeks, and I would have become the perfect cliche of the bored, bitter housewife. I can still see myself sitting around in my bathrobe, drinking gin and chainsmoking with my head full of curles that never, ever gets brushed out....

So now I am back at home with him, and it seems to be working out well. I can't imagine not being here to take care of him. My mom raised us by herself, and worked, but respects my choice to stay home. I think either is alright, as long as what you're doing makes you happy.

My MIL lost her husband at 39. It devastated her financialy and because she has no skills shes 60 and working in a factory.
ALWAYS have a back up plan.
Yeah it's good to have options.kamikat said:This does bother me. I know that as a hairdresser I could never make enough money to support my sons on my own. My hubby insists that there's enough life insurance to help me go to school or get some other training, but I still worry. I'm thinking about going back to school, now that both kids are in all day school. If the unthinkable doesn't happen and I can take my time about getting a degree, my kids will be in high school by the time I finish my degree and I will feel better about getting a full time job.
