[quote=Anonymous]Commuting would be hard but if you can find some audio books, language CDs, etc, you can find a way to pass the time. The bigger question is, are you ok with being away from your home and your kids for that many hours each day? And is your husband ok with taking care of the kids and the housework for that time? It's one thing to talk about this in theory, it's another thing to put it into practice. I did this experiment before my first job, so perhaps you'd find it helpful. Take a day (or week) and do the full commute. Have your husband deal with the kids and housework for that day/week. When's it's over, compare notes and go from there. This is the kind of thing that requires everyone to work as a team, kids included. When it goes well, it can bring you closer together as a family. [/quote]
