[quote=Anonymous]I understand that not every job/field has flexibility but man, sure seems like a waste to quit a job you love that earns good money when kids are away from the house 35 hours a week between school and activities. I know you can't always pick the hours you work but I hope as technology advances and traffic gets worse and office space gets more expensive etc. we change the way we view work in this country. All those talented women sitting home because they can't find a situation that lets them have some time with their kids in the late afternoons. What a waste. And I don't mean that every SAHM with kids in school sits at home, I'm just trying to illustrate a point that some women probably would like to work if they could find some flexibility.

I also think that if both parents compromise if possible it is ideal. I have found I don't ALWAYS need to be the one who is around for my kids - if DH is there that is great for them and him. So I hope that we can tag-team when the kids are older so that someone is there for them after school/activities and yet we can both keep our jobs. I think we will need the money and the fulfillment aspect.[/quote]
