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!!!!!!!!

That was the first one I found at google.com. If you look it up there are dozens of sites that all say the same thing. Exactly entitled to it. That means the law supports it and one will receive it when under the guidelines. Most SAHP are under those guidelines.

It is not alimony. It is dependent spouse support. I believe the two are different. However I am not sure.

we took my daughters 1st grade class on a field trip to see a play earlier this year and they released the kids as their buses arrived at the door, so they announced each group as it was being released. half of the groups at this play were from daycares. perhaps it depends on where you are whether or not daycares do field trips.

we have one daycare in our town and they do several field trips, and definately weekly during the summer. i know this because i have gone on some field trips with them when they needed an additional adult. they send a bus to swim lessons.

I guess it can include Aftercare/Beforecare for school aged children. But days ago, the discussion was about where sah was more ideal than dc. If you didn't read those posts like I did, then you've not wasted hours of your life here. Smart girl. ;)

I don't think you or anyone else SAH because you don't know any better.

"Most sahms I know, including me, fit in chores, etc. when the baby is sleeping and at night. They don't take priority over interacting with your kids."

Yes :)
