How do you think the economy will affect decisions by women to stay at home versus work? With so many people losing jobs, do you think more women will be forced back into a job to help out (or take over) family finances? Is SAH parenting

I'm confused. Are you now talking about people who have trust funds, stocks, or Swiss bank accounts that provide them with income over and above their salaries?

"if you continue to invoke this idea that every family lives off of their salaries, you'd be mistaken."

What else can we live off of? If not my salary or my dh's salary--the only leftover option would be . . . the proceeds of ebay auctions for our magic telescopes?

Ours wouldn't change...at least overall, some of the details would change just because the area is very different.

It was a different subdivision than ours, but no further into the metro area than ours.
