[quote=Anonymous]This is one reason why we are in the suburbs. My DH does have family here but they are very spread out and not close enough to help during weekdays. I have a chronic pain issue where I used to be down for the count quite a bit. What saves me is that we live in a quiet, safe suburb where kids can walk to school (ES - HS). When we're in need (walk to/from school, watch kids for a few hours) our neighbors pitch in, and we reciprocate quite frequently. We had applied to private school last year but ultimately turned down spot because of the benefits of living so close to public and other school families/friends. It has actually been a life saver for us. [/quote]
