Give this a try.....

1.  ssh into the machine that you normally log into first.

2.  Create a executable file in ~/bin  maybe call it "gothere" with the
contents simply "ssh user at home.computer".

3.  exit from that and back to the remote system.

4.  Use "ssh -t user at middle.host bin/gothere

Now, I have all of my logins set up to us public key authentication. 
So, I don't get password prompts....but it works just fine.
OK, I also tried to another host where I needed to supply a password and
that also worked....

[egreshko at misty ~]$ ssh -t f12l bin/gothere2
egreshko at 192.168.0.191's password:
Last login: Tue Mar  9 18:31:24 2010 from 192.168.0.194
[egreshko at f12k ~]$ exit
logout
Connection to 192.168.0.191 closed.
Connection to f12l closed.
[egreshko at misty ~]$
