[quote=Anonymous]I have three kids and PT has worked best for me and my family but it’s still very busy. At my last job I was expected to be pretty close to as productive as a full timer, and I was because moms can be super efficient by necessity, but it was stressful. At my current job I am much closer to leaving work behind when I leave for the day but I still take a bit of unpaid work home with me. Full time was really hard with three kids and a spouse with a big job and long hours. Even with a nanny too much was falling through the cracks. We can afford for me to be home full time but I like working and using my education and expertise. Also, I have teens and am as busy with my kids as when they were little. There are so many orthodontist and dermatologist appointments, plus school events, college prep, and all the rest.[/quote]
