As a former teacher and husband who has a good job, I think people thought we were out of our minds. Of the other families I have met in our area, 99% did not work and their only income was from disability checks, unemployment, and stipends. So it gives the impression to most that these people are in it for the money (and I am sure that some are but some aren't) and people wonder why we do it if we don't need the money. Gee~ could it be for the kids?!?!?! Those who really know me know why we do it, but I know others act very surprised.
