[quote=Anonymous]I earn about $200K. 
I work in the vendor and contract management space.
This is plenty for 2 people though like most folks I wouldn't complain if I made more.

My job is fairly flexible, for example I had no issues leaving early yesterday to get my kid by 4 for the early APS closure.  I also had to go in late today b/c of the late start. My manager and her manager also had childcare issues yesterday so it has been an across the board mix of working from home and having flexible schedules.

My own staff members don't have school aged children but they have aging parents, sick partners, and one has an infant so we all have our personal issues and requirements for flexibility. Our company it great about that.  We have 10 days a year we can take to support family members for sick appointments or unplanned child/elder care needs.

I don't have family local but when I have to travel for work (once or twice a year) my mother comes to stay with DS.

DS has everything he needs and most of what he wants.  
We travel during the summer, a few domestic trips and typically one international trip.
