[quote=Anonymous]I hired a housekeeper 25 hours/wk when my third was about 6 months old. She did all of the house cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, laundry, calling about repairs and most of the general maintenance around the house. She stayed with us until my youngest was in second grade when I started having the kids take more of that stuff over themselves. I am not sure that I could have done it without her. She was so obsessive about things, and she would get really angry if I didn't make the kids clean up after themselves or if we didn't eat the dinner she prepared. I went through some really tough times during those years, and she kept everything in the house ticking and kind of forced me to go through the motions of family meals, maintaining my home, and disciplining my children. I was so lucky to have her in my life. [/quote]
