[quote=Anonymous]I am a WOHM with 2 kids aged 7 and 4. I am debating quitting my job to be able to spend more time with the kids. I feel like I am missing out so much. In a few years they will grow up and would not need me anymore. I do like my job and the financial stability it brings. I hear people telling me that it is not worth it now as the kids are going to be in school 6 to 7 hours. I should have done it when they were little and at home. I also hear people saying that elementary years are easier and I should wait till they get in middle/ high school to quit as that's when it really matters for the parents to be around after school. I want to get perspective of parents who have grown up kids. When is it more important for parents to be around- before they start school, elementary age, middle school or high school? If you worked, when do you think it would have made the most sense/ impact to be a SAHM?[/quote]
