I work in the corporate world and my husband works at a university, and my salary is nearly double his. We will be facing the same decision soon. What makes it even harder is that my husband has his dream job and he would actually pay to be able to do it, so there's no chance of him quitting. Good luck you sound like me!

The part-time job of a financial wizard will be rewarding, financially. In case you choose the other option: kids are very resilient, especially ones that have not known anything else.

It was important to my wife and I to have someone home as we feel we missed out on that growing up. It is interesting that our generation (30-45) were the first “latch-key” kids.

Yet, I think you've missed the point... you're talking about a human life. Your child- who deserves more than a cost/benefit analysis. You and your spouse are clearly excellent parents who care deeply for their children. I am sure that your decision will be excellent either way. I commend you for going to great lengths to try to analyze and understand this- it is not an easy process and it must be even harder to do through a public forum. My very best wishes to you, your husband, and family. Regards, A mother of a one year old who went through the same analysis at month five! Dear Madison,
