[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Summer camps are one thing (and many kids with SAHPs or FT nannies still attend them to socialize and learn new things). But before *and* aftercare when you have two parents with WFH flexibility? That seems avoidable. DH and I have always staggered schedules for this reason, to maximize time with a parent. Yes, it means we have to log in most weeknights for an hour or two, but totally worth it.[/quote] OP I came into the thread inclined to agree with the title (I have a SAHM neighbor friend who I similarly feel doesn't "get it" in terms of my schedule, why I can't meet up midday, why my kid can't come over to play in the afternoon, etc.) But it also seems like you put your kid thru very long hours for someone with your & DH's schedules. Some people have jobs and setups where they can't avoid this but it might be puzzling to your SAHM friend. That said it's none of her business and it just seems like you don't have much in common.[/quote]
