[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm also a split shift WAH parent. Kids hit the front door around 4:00, then it's some combination of snack/play with friends/homework/dinner/activity until bedtime. There always seems to be less time than I thought there would be.[/quote] Do you feel like it's worth it for you to do this vs. paying a high school kid or something to come over and hang out for a couple hours? One thing holding me back from wanting to try this is that I feel like it won't necessarily be quality time. It'll just be driving them around to activities etc.[/quote] We walk to our activities so there's time to chat or stop for a snack to or from. It's very relaxing and a nice way to unwind and connect. Not sure of that's possible for you but we deliberately pick walkable things to do.[/quote]
