I don't know if there's a "right" answer, but my wife kept her job when we got married, then when the kids came along she quit and stayed at home. She's been a housewife for 18 years now, and since our youngest is only nearly one, she has the prospect of another four years at home before even thinking about a part-time job. She is quite happy with the arrangement, and God has used her circumstances to work in other peoples lives on more than a few occasions. Happily for us, finance is not an issue, as we live in rather unique circumstances, but I know that many people struggle to make ends meet, even with double incomes and few luxuries, so there is no judgement in what I say.
I feel sorry for the single mothers and fathers out there with no support who have no choice but to give their kids what they know to be less than the best, even though it is the best they can do. They might be our societies version of "orphans and widows" that James speaks about.
