[quote=Anonymous]I do almost this exact schedule. It sucks! Can you count on your significant other to check the kids backpacks for homework and help with that? And cook? (and half eaten food, or poopy panties in a ziplock?) And to not have to work late or go to an evening meeting? The problem is that my kids are in school so I have to drop them off around 8:30 and they do aftercare, then DH does pick up. The whole family is stressed out because I get home so late. Either we do not eat together or we eat way too late. We do games and bedtime stuff but I'd really prefer to be home for several hours with the kids before they go to bed. I am able to do chores, doctor appts, grocery run, summer camp tours, car repairs, etc in the morning, but I find myself doing chores that normal people do after work instead of working out. So I have about an hour and a half not counting the commute to myself. But it eats into family together time and it's all laundry, dishes, etc. [/quote]
