In reply to Heather Johnson. So true. Two of my sisters have stay at home husbands and they work for the money and insurance too. Insurance is why my husband works outside the home too - working at home is great, but if we needed insurance I'd be looking at ways to get it at home or away.

In reply to Jenny. I know how you feel. I can't imagine going back to working outside the home, but both my older sisters have worked at home and eventually gone back to outside the home.

Such a personal decision and so different for each family! I stayed home with my trio for 5 years and then went back to work for 3. Working outside the home just wasn’t cutting it for our family, so I’m home again, and it feels right 🙂

The decision on where to work is very personal and depends on so many factors. I worked part time outside the home when my daughter was a baby baby. I just went back full time. We need the insurance and the extra income. My hubby works from home.

I’ve thought a lot about what I’d do when all of my kids are in school for a full day. Having a college degree makes me want to make use of my education, but a part of me has changed and wants to stay at home and make sure the home is a harmonious place and haven for the family. Even if that means working from home somehow.
