Who has influenced your sah/woh
| Thu, 02-09-2006 - 2:39pm |
opinion to DIFFER. What I mean is--is there anyone on this board or in real life whose opinion/reasoning/debating/facts started to make your thinking more to the middle? As in if you thought sah or woh was best & then after some discussion/thought, you began to think that whatever is best for each family--really there is no one best way, etc.
We just really needed a new thread here!!!!!!!!

I will wait for any proof you have on this issue. Please post your data.
Didn't you say that you had 2 girls? How would you know anything about raising a boy? I would love to see you tell PNJ and PA that their boys don't get any cues from their mothers. That would be interesting.

First of all it isn't just women. If my DH was a SAHD and I WOH and we divorced a court would order me to pay spousal support because he is a dependent spouse. Ever hear of alimony? My DH co worker has a wife that is very successful. They just got a divorce and he has custody of their DD. He receives an alimony check AND child support from her. He wasn't a dependent spouse but the courts awarded him the alimony because he side stepped his career in respect to being home with his DD.
***And you believe the working mom is not at an advantage because?***
I haven't heard of an employer allowing a Working mom to take extra time off because of a divorce. Not once have I seen it. I don't think the working mom is any better off. Again many families with dual WOHP have a dual WOH parent lifestyle. You lose one income and you are in big trouble. The SAHM will have to go back into the workforce yes. That will be harder. But when her lifestyle is led with a 1 income family it will easier for her to maintain the 1 income lifestyle.
