If you and your partner could retire early if you wanted to, would you want both of you home all the time raising your child/ren together?

Question

I'd want him to work part time

Answer

I would but my husband wouldn't be able to. He has to do a bunch of chores on a weekend before he's "allowed" to relax. I am the opposite, I can relax anytime, even with the awareness of urgent chores

Answer

I stay home with the kid(soon to be 2) I love it! But, if it were me AND my husband, someone would be buried in the back yard. Lol

Answer

See, if we had the option and money, we would travel. We would go all over, eat lots of food, and just live life. We've talked about winnings the lottery, building our dream house, and him never working again. I mean, I'd probably open up my drean porn shop, and run it lol.

Answer

We'd go crazy if we were both home as full time parents.

Answer

We could definitely both be home together, yes. No issue. We are both busy people though so we aren't the types to "do nothing." We'd keep busy no doubt and I would love having so much freedom

Answer

All my husband has ever wanted is to be is a dad. He also naturally has the "entrepreneurial" type thinking, and in no way plans to be working a 9-5 job the rest of his life. I have no doubts with his drive, that he will accomplish that. We both agreed we wanted me to stay home with our kids regardless of whether he was working or not though. So I do care for my 1 year old and I am 32 weeks pregnant now :) With that said, if we had the time and money, we wouldn't just be sitting at home all day. My husband always talks about wanting to do things to help those in the community (or outside our community and country even), so I am sure we would do things like that! We also want to home school, but do a mix of unschooling, as well - so we would have a lot of impromptu trips out of the house to learn hands on, dependent on what our kids interests are that day! Every couple is different though, and I know some really need that "me" time and so the thought of being home together every second could drive you nuts! Haha. The hubs and I literally do everything together though, we don't have just single me time. If we read, we read together (seperate books but next to each other lol), if we want to watch something on Netflix we watch something together, exc. We are also both introvert too, haha. That plays a big role! We have mutual friends we see regularly and once in a blue moon we go hang one on one with a friend. But, the one rarity is enough for us 😂

Answer

No I would retire and go get my dream job so would he.

Answer

I would love to, but I don't think my husband could do it. Not because we can't be together all day or he wouldn't want to be with the baby, but he just can't be in the house that much. He'd go nuts if he couldn't work I think lol.

Answer

Not having kids. So if we would retire early: we would travel, spend time to do what we love to do and then spend time doing things we love to do together.

Answer

We would be able to enjoy life it would be great. 
We have some different hobbies so we wouldn't always be home together but I think it would be awesome
