[quote=Anonymous]I agree that kids do great in all kinds of scenarios. I'll "never be able to measure or compare because I can't go back and redo it. All I can tell you is that it is what "feels" right to us. Maybe its more for us than the kids -- DH feels more relaxed at work because he knows I am with the kids, he feels more connected to them during the day because we talk throughout the day about every detail that is happening with the kids - I feel more in control and relaxed because I am not splitting priorities, balancing schedules, dealing with competing interests. This is the scenario in which both DH and I are the best parents we know how to be. All the things my DCs and I did together in their toddler and preschool years, I would not have been able to do if I WOH. I know I will forever treasure that time. Maybe it won't make a bit of difference to them that they didn't spend that time in daycare or with a nanny instead of me, or maybe it will. Like I said, I can't pretend to know what the future will look like. "

What time did DH treasure with the kiddos?
