Just because only one spouse goes off to work each day, doesn't mean the other spouse has done nothing to contribute to the spouse's successes, salary, and earning potenital.
---> But it also doesn't mean that they have contributed either. It is VERY wrong to assume that one party...SAHP or not, is contributing to the "sucess" of the other party's career. Why not give credit where credit is due? Example...SO does NOT get a raise because I clean the bathroom...he gets a raise because HE worked hard for it. I didn't get a raise because SO hauls the garbage and recyling to the curb, I got because *I* worked hard for it.
Afterall, how does a person work full-time, work overtime, travel for work extensively, climb the corportate ladder without any complications, with young kids at home?
---> Often times, a wage earner HAS to increase their workload BECAUSE they are the only wage earner and need to make up for the loss of the second income. Should they be penalized?
