[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Empty nester here. My advice in a nutshell: stay home as long as you possibly can. Yes, through high school if possible. It matters to the kids ALOT. In subtle and more obvious ways. They won't thank you while they are home, but will thank you later. You don't get those years back. [/quote] lol! June Cleaver died a long time ago. I do believe Wally's wife has her pearls, however.[/quote] Well then I guess I'm a June Cleaver too. I worked like crazy and then quit when my then youngest was in K (seems like an odd time to quit, but I just felt like I could not miss one more minute). After a few years, we then went for 2 more kids and I continued to SAH. Honestly it is nice to be able to say when pushed that I did (big shot job here) but really I'm most proud that I stayed home. And I freely admit that it's "easy to say/do" when I have a husband who is supportive in every way that matters. [/quote]
