I think that Tragic has spelt it out pretty good, but how about costing out your worth as a Mom? Calculate exactly how much you'd need to spend in order to work full time. Include all the obvious things like childcare, transport, lunches etc, but also include the additional cost of takeaway meals for when you're too tired after a day's work to cook, or buying shop bought cakes because you haven't time to make them etc. And include taxes. Then work out what hourly rate you would need to acheive to make your working full time worthwhile to your family. I bet he'll suddenly start appreciate having you around the home a hell of allot more!
