[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]15:41 Sounds like you’ve identified the things in your life that need to change. You set your a life totally dependent on 2 incomes & away from all family. Sounds like choices have consequences...[/quote] I am so glad you are so rich and smug![/quote] On the contrary. We made tough choices to manage the needs of our family. Walked away from many things we felt entitled to, so we could accept 100% responsibility for our kids 100% of the time. If we made more $$, we’d have more kids. If I’d stayed in a high demand job- we’d have fewer kids ect. If we lived closer to family, that would have played in too. And smug, no. Just tired of parents blaming their work/life balance on no one picking up more of the ‘life’. [/quote] So when it’s not a pandemic, you sit at home doing nothing.... [/quote] Nope. Like I said earlier, I work. But I work a job that isn’t high paying or incredibly demanding. By choice. We had to move when our family made that choice. We gave up lots of things when I made that choice. We stopped having kids when I made that choice. We don’t panic every time the nurse calls from school, or the car pool is late, or after care closes. The amount of stress parents put on outsourcing everything- so they can work more is astonishing. [/quote] Your are a sanctimonious fact hunt. [/quote]
