Staying at home a choice??
| Sun, 04-29-2007 - 6:46am |
The author of this article thinks most mothers go to work because they want to, not because they have to.
"Most parents from two-parent families today do have a choice when it comes to parental care. They can try and talk themselves into believing they don't, but it really boils down to priorities."

Does anyone (other than her) really believe this? I don't know of anyone among my friends who works who wouldn't rather be staying at home with their children. But they don't have the choice!

The federal government does not consider BAH taxable income but it does consider it income.
I know that is has since changed but when EIC first came about (the mid 80's) we had to add our BAH to our taxable income to see if we qualified (our BAH put us over the top so we did not).
It also has to be included when filling out a FASFA (not sure of the actual initials) the form for governement aid for college you have to include BAH.
