[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We made financial sacrifices for us to spend more time with our kids, and no I wouldn't change that for more money. We are comfortable and relaxed. We're very lucky, though by the lifestyles of some of DC's peers, we are "doing without". I see the stress on parents' faces at pick up on days where there's no aftercare, though, and I feel justified. I feel bad that so many of them don't think they can jump off the hamster wheel. [/quote] You may have given up more than money....people may be working demanding jobs for reasons other than money. Just because someone is stressed when the afternoon schedule changes doesn’t mean they have regrets. They may feel justified about their choices when they do something meaningful or significant and feel bad that you don’t have the opportunity to do those things, given the choices you have made.
