[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know why more parents don't do this. It makes no sense to stay home with the kids when they're young and go back to work once the kids are old enough to be home alone. It's when they're old enough to be home alone that they can get in the most mischief!

Everything I did bad in HS went down after school at a house where parents weren't home because they were working.

DW gets off work at 2:00 so she's always been home with the kids after school.  [/quote]

I cranked in my job when kids little and banked salary and work experience/climbed ladder as best could so could at least try to be in more flexible work situation once older. I am glad I did, but did get a LOT of judgment for “how can you leave your babies” when went back after FMLA period. Also I probably couldn’t have as easily made choice to go back to work then if I didn’t fully trust the daycare situation I had, but I knew 100% that kids were safe and massively loved while I was at work. It’s all a balancing act and as someone says above, will always be someone there to judge you whatever choose so just need to be comfortable with what works for you and your family.[/quote]
