[quote=Anonymous](FYI - I am speaking in general, and not Covid related, since that is obviously another situation entirely.) I have been a SAHM since my first was born. My kids are now in late ES - HS. If were forced to choose, I absolutely would have chosen to stay home when they were small, 0-3ish. My kids love school and the socialization of it all, so it really wouldn't be that big of a deal for them to go to a little bit of aftercare each day. We're in LCPS, so by the time the MS and HS students get home from school, they'd be alone 60 minutes or less before I got home. Not at all if they stay after for activities. I mostly continue to SAHM now as a household manager, because I am lucky to have that option. I do also supervise homework, drive to activities, and cook dinner (usually from scratch or close to it.) It works for us. But again, if I had to choose, I would choose the early years. [/quote]
