Steven, I know where you are coming from. I wondered the same thing eleven years ago. You know what? Things do have a way of just working out. Sure there have been times when money has been real tight but we got through and we are doing fine. Don't let anyone make you feel like a bad parent if you both have careers. If one of you is a teacher that means you can spend the summer with your child. The hardest part is the first couple of years before they hit school. Make sure you do your homework and select a top notch day care that does not have a large number of kids. It also helps to have a really understanding employer who is good about time off when the child is sick or off school for whatever reason. The important thing if you have a child in daycare is that one or both of the parents be there in the evenings. Try to limit babysitters after work and in the evenings. A child that spends eight hours in daycare needs to come home to parents not another babysitter. All in all I would have to say that money is the least of your worries when raising a child. It will work out. If I were you I think I would wait a couple of more years until you both are firmly entrenched in your careers and have a little more flexibility. You'll have more money too. Again don't let anyone make you feel like a schmuck if you both decide to work and have kids. It would be nice if we could all have one parent home but in this day and age it is pretty hard to do. A lot of the people that are able to do this delight in making the rest of us feel bad.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
