[quote=Anonymous]I was SAHM w/ a 10-hr a week job until my youngest started K. It was nice for about six month -- I caught up on house projects, got to the gym regularly - but it got kind of lonely and I decided to go back to work FT. Fortunately, it didn't take me long to find something FT, at the same level as when I quit, with flexible hours and the ability to WAH as needed. I think if my kids were doing intensive activities I might have been more hesitant to go back or if they went to a school with a culture of a lot of parent volunteering. But, our ES was really oriented to working parents -- all events in the evening, little call for parent volunteers, and even all the sports teams didn't start practices before 5:30. So, that made my working really easy. [/quote]
