first.. do you REALLY think a teacher (assuming it's a woman) wasn't married to a man who worked? And if indeed it was a male and his wife didn't work.. $50K would not have been enough to live on in most parts of Phoenix.. I happen to know that the average income in most zipcodes in Phoenix (a cheap place by national standards) if closer to $75K..
Wake up kid.
edit: btw, my wife was a teacher and saw first hand the difference between kids who's mom says home and those who's mom works.. let's just say it was significant.
