Is it bad to leave lawn clippings on you're grass your husband and you argue over this all the time?
I actually leave the clippings, but I have a mulching blade on my mower which cuts up the grass a little finer that non-mulching blades. If you have a mulching blade and leave the grass cuttings they just decompose but if not and you leave too much, it could cause some issues, more thatch, etc.

Is a mulching kit necessary for a lawn tractor?
A mulching blade on a lawn mower shreds the grass so that it can easily decompose right on the lawn and nourish the lawn. They say using a mulching blade all mowing season allows you to skip one fertilizer feeding. I've never understood why people prefer to bag up the grass and send it to a landfill. Maybe they don't like dealing with the bits of grass left in the lawn.
Can you change from regular mower blade to mulching mower blade?
yes A regular blade is typically sharpened only near the end with a bend at the tip to increase the airflow. A mulching blade is sharpened from the end towards the middle and has multiple cutting angles which aid in cutting the grass multiple times into smaller pieces. The better mulchers also include a discharge plug which forces the grass to be cut into fine particles. When changing blades always make sure the length is the same and that the mounting holes match the original.

Of course you should. Sharpen in the same manner as any blade making sure it is balanced when finished. Make note that some mulching blades have 2 cutting edges. Sharpen those using the same method.
What is the actual time to remove mulching?
I never remove mulching, simply add more on top. Previous mulching layers will break down naturally.
What is the difference between normal mower blades and mulching mower blades?
Regular blades cut the grass and bag it directly into the bag. Mulching blades make the grass stay in the deck for longer and makes the grass fall into the blade several times. Thus it chops it finer and some falls back into the grass.
