[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you afford a nanny? It makes after-school and summers bearable. As our kids get older, she's become their Uber driver. [/quote] Around here a driving nanny requires a BIG JOB salary. How does two gov drones swing $50k after tax, and maybe an extra car?[/quote] Then one or both of you get a BIG JOB. Our driving nanny also does laundry, brings in groceries, unpacks school supplies, makes lunches for the next day, supervises homework, drives, and does meal prep so I can just heat up dinner when I get home. It's not cheap, but it's necessary. Just go back to private practice with a firm that doesn't micromanage where and when you work as long as you meet your hours requirement. I can focus on my kids and put them to bed when I get home (between 4 and 7, depending on the day). More money can solve this problem in some ways, provided you find the right work setup and the right nanny. [/quote]
