[quote=Anonymous]Single mom here living in NoVA with no family to help and no telework option. My son played AAU/travel basketball for the better teams in DMV that practiced in PG county. Travel time to practice, twice weekly, was at least 1 hour to practice in rush hour traffic but less home. I made it work with a flexible work schedule, working 10 hour days on non-practice days. I also switched my son to a neighborhood, walkable school (for several reasons, not this) and he did his homework before practices. Was it worth it? YES for his development and basketball successes in HS and possibly college. But I sacrificed my free time with friends (no time) and working out.[/quote]
