If I went back to admin or teaching, I wouldn't earn enough to cover daycare. So I'm quite happy (never bored, certainly!) to "stay at home". We struggle on just dh's salary. BUT I secretly wish I had chosen a career (rather than fine arts degree... sigh!) & was respected & earned pots of money & did lots of "important" things. I'm not very competitive and money isn't a huge motivation (unless, God forbid, dh should lose his job) but I almost envy women who have to juggle their careers & their families.
