And your dh made enough $$ to support both of you comfortably, do you think you would be working?

I apologize then.
They work hand in hand. Without one, you don't have the other.

It was done for me. I felt that I needed to be spending more time on home and family. I did not give up working altogether and I will go back to working pt in a few months. But when I gave up my career I didn't do it for anyone else. I did it for myself. My dh and kids may have reaped a benfit from that, but that is not the reason I gave it up. I felt my life was out of balance and giving up the career portion of my life brought it more in balance. I can't speak for all women but many give up their careers willingly and do it at least partially for themselves.
