You said you have all this nice stuff and youve worked for your own home but couldnt all that have been done with one person staying and raising the kids???? From your above post it sounds like you have pawned the duty of raising your kids off on a daycare. Sounds like it was a good decision but who is raising your kid???

Why - I guess because my wife considers herself a modern women and doesn't want to be labeled as a house wife. She wants to go out and work so she can have nice things, rather than struggling to get by on my income. We are certainly raising our child, the daycare does a good job of looking after her and teaching her.
You're argument is similar to people who home school their kids. When you send your kids to school, who is raising them then? I definitely see benefits in home schooling from a learning standpoint - not that me & my wife are qualified teachers. Yet from a social standpoint, I definitely think that school with other kids is the way to go.
