So it's an obvious smart move financially, for all involved. Just make sure your wife is really ok with it and isn't going along with it just because it's such an clearly practical thing to do. The other consideration that could be a pro or con, is the neighbors. Does your wife still know them? Any old couples that watched her grow up and wouldn't mind solving your childcare issues to some extent? Any families she never liked? Ex boyfriends? The neighborhood is more important than the house in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
