[quote=Anonymous]I didn’t. We both chose jobs where weekend work was rare. That said, we did jobs that involved a lot of travel and it was extremely challenging when the kids were young. We put limits on the work and protected our work/life balance as much as we could at the time, although maybe not quite as much as we should have done. You can’t have it all. You have to make choices about what is important to you. I will say, as someone about to be an empty nester, that there may be opportunities to step up your schedule and move into more demanding jobs when the kids are older/gone, but there won’t be more opportunities to spend time with them when they are young.[/quote]
