so this has come a bit out of the blue but instead of feeling adamant I'm not doing it I actually feel like it could be a good thing.
Bit of background,me and dp work full time,long commutes,limited family time,twins that are 3.
He has looked at finances and says we wouldn't be much worse off as we would reduce our outgoings considerably including our second car,tube and parking for me.
He thinks the quality time and having a parent at home will be better than more material things and fancy holidays etc.
Having always hated the thought of staying at home I'm really thinking he has a valid point and I must say I'm struggling at the moment leaving my dcs even though my nanny is amazing.my daughter often wakes up asking for me and sometimes cries for me when I'm at work.
My son was unwell today but because I had a meeting I couldn't stay off with him.i drove to the tube in tears.
There is no pressure from him so ultimately the decision is mine,but I'd love to hear your opinions whatever they are!

It was a funny picture I had in my mind after scottish mummys post about how we would roll our eyes and think 'oh no not her again' Its called humour?

I think this thread needs to die a natural death pretty soon.
