[quote=Anonymous]I have not read all 9 pages but wanted to share my thoughts because I think we have a pretty good thing going in my family. I am a woman with a corporate job with a moderate level of flexibility. My (now retired) husband worked as a teacher very inflexibly day to day but with Summers and holidays off. This was perfect because I handled the doctors appointments, school day things like chaperoning and volunteering, and he took care of driving to extracurricular activities and child care when there was no school. Both jobs were inflexible but in completely different ways. We also had just one child which helped and she is heading to college soon. I turn 50 next year and I’m hoping to get 10 more years out of my career and really lean into it in this last stretch. This works very well for us and kept our child care costs low.[/quote]
