[quote=Anonymous]2 careers, 3 kids. We are in a pandemic, and all 3 kids are home, and we are still working, and managing virtual school and a 3 year old. The only reason we can do this is because we both have flexible jobs and schedules and because we work from home. One works for the federal government, one works non-profit. We make 225K. The secret, in my opinion, is to find a job where you can work from home sometimes/all the time, and have 2 jobs that are flexible - meaning you can work at night sometimes, that you can easily take off for appointments, that neither parent is traveling tons and tons. And, reduce the commute if you can. This all makes having children and working doable and - most importantly - enjoyable. [/quote]
