[quote=Anonymous]I stayed home for five years and then went back to work purely for myself, no financial need. To be honest, I was bored out of my mind. I love my children and enjoyed being with them, but not all the time. There was no intellectual challenge, and I needed that. Going back to work has certainly had its own challenges (as you identified), but I think I’m overall a better parent for working because I’m really engaged and enjoying the time I’m with them rather than just killing time.[/quote]
