[quote=Anonymous] (1) I don't know your field, but have you considered working for yourself? Consulting, starting your own business, etc? For me, and many other moms I know, this is the way we got the flexibility we needed without compromising on the work side. Over the past few years, I got to build the exact kind of org I want to work for, and now manage a team of 30 and do meaningful and interesting work. (2) I think it's not about any specific performance or Dr's appointment, but the overall pattern. At a minimum, every kid needs a stable long-term presence - someone who loves them, makes time for them, is there for them. If that's a grandparent OR the kind of nanny that stays for a long time, the kid will be fine. But there's also the question of what kind of relationship you want with your kids...I don't think there's any way to grow up and have a close relationship without you being that person investing a lot of time into your kids.
