[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We drop off at 8 and the place is packed. I'm told a lot of kids arrive at 6-6:30am in their PJs still mostly asleep. You do what works for you in your family. [/quote] My sister used to drop off my nephew at 6:30 in his pjs still sleepy so she could get to school. Then she went straight to one of her three jobs and got home around 9/9:30 PM. She typically had one day a week entirely off so she could spend it with my nephew but other than that, it was a mix of school and work on most days so her time with him was limited. It was really tough and she felt really bad about it. But after a few years, she had her degree and got a much better job that was a traditional 9-5. Now my nephew is a happy healthy adult who has a great relationship with his mother. People make all sorts of sacrifices to make due in this world. We like to beat ourselves up over it but by and large, everyone is just trying their best with the limited options we have. [/quote]
