Self suffiencent meaning indpendentally wealthy? Good for you...there is no way..if your husband is making $50K a year and yo have one child and another on the way, that you can live in manhattan without outside assistance if you don;t work. Food, clothing, entertainment, conveyance etc alone would be $25k a year...that is net cash from your husband's salary. remainder would go to rent. that means..you are living on either credit cards or have havea fairy god mother.
Regarding holier than thou attitude...weren;t you the one who said.."kids whose mom's work seem like they aer lacking someting" or something to that effect? madam, i would quite while you are behind.
