As a new parent, I have no answers to your questions but think about the issues you raise all the time. 800 lb gorilla indeed!
My wife has put her teaching career on hold, for the time being, to be with our newborn. We feel very fortunate that we can afford this choice of lifestyle (again, at least for the time being), though we also feel like we're heading into uncharted waters and are not sure what rocks may be under the surface.
Looking forward to reading the responses. Great post.
