[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those of you who find this relaxing - how old are your kids? Do you work? [/quote] I do. My kids are 9 and 11 and I fully acknowledge that if they were toddlers and maybe even teenagers, this would be far more miserable for us.[/quote] [b]I just cannot fathom how anyone with kids who works find this even slightly slower paced or relaxing. [/b]I have two very active boys that are six and eight. My job is relatively flexible but I am stretched thin every minute of the day and can’t remember the last time I was alone. My mental health is seriously in a bad place. I love my kids and my family but we all need some space and some structure.[/quote] Because we don’t have to rush in the morning getting ourselves and our kids, ready. We don’t have to deal (in person) with crappy bosses and co-workers, and we don’t have to come home supervise homework, and chauffeur our kids around to various activities, and on Saturdays we don’t have to be at some field at 8am, and haul along a snack for 15 kids. I can’t fathom how anyone can’t see how working from home, even with rambunctious kids, could be less stressful than the normal pace of life. [/quote] So you are proving the point earlier in the thread that something is wrong with your day to day life.[/quote]
