Trent over at the Simple Dollar wrote a great post clarifying the benefits of staying at home with your children.  Its got a comment discussion going on that is useful, too.  Go Read: The Real Value of Stay At Home Parenting.  I would strongly suggest that there are emotional benefits for the kids and parent that are invaluable as well.

I just read this great guest post about a couple’s journey towards financial freedom.  You should totally check it out.  The author’s blog, Millionaire Mommy Next Door, is a read of mine - she’s definitely in my RSS feeds.
