My opinion of a stay at home/trad wife may not apply to y’all’s actual experience but… imho if yall can pull it off ur kids and family will prolly be more connected and grounded The lack of second income will likely create friction at times and u may not always appreciate the amount of energy she will expend in the day to day raising of kids (…those lil turds can and will be a handful at times😳🤣) while juggling the other aspects of stay at home wife/mom. Is she gonna be cleaning?, doing most of the cooking?, any outside work(yard work, gardening, animals)? …if yes she’ll be a working “beast” although it’ll be hard to appreciate in terms of filthy fiat “status” I think (full disclosure: I’m an idgit and wrong a lot), if u are fortunate enuf to be able to afford it and y’all are a united front with realistic expectations, the long term benefits in terms of family unity and functionality will have been worth the sacrificed second income. …I work in a hospital and I still haven’t met a single person in the ICU that wishes they’d worked a few extra days/years…but there are plenty that wished they’d spent more time with family and frenz🤷🏽♂️ Good luck my digital fren🌅
Thanks. Yeah my salary alone is way more than the average and median household income and I work from home. So luckily I do farm chores morning noon and night and still can cover all of our expenses and invest. Definitely think the stay at home wife/mom is underrated hardwork
