Naughtyangel, I was able to be an at-home mom while raising my 6 kids, and I firmly believe it was the right thing for me to do. My philosophy was "why pay someone else to fuck up my kids when I can stay home and fuck them up for free?"

All kidding aside, I think that AS LONG AS you have a marketable skill (in the event of what-ifs), you should follow your heart and stay home with your child for as long as you possibly can. This is time you can never get back with him. Way to go, Mom!!
