[quote=Anonymous]FWIW I was not cut out to work full time with little kids but I was also not cut out to be home full time (this is obviously a huge privilege and I was capable but I am talking about optimal mental health and family dynamics). A good solution for us was I had my own gig-based business when I had very small kids and at age 3 I went back PT during the day when they were in school. I was able to do pick-up (we took turns with drop off) and give my kids structure and socialization while also having some structure and socialization myself. I have teens now and have had a good, flexible, fulfillling FT job for a while (while still being home after school, even if I am busy with work sometimes while at home). It's been the dream. Can she work PT, both in terms of $ and meaning?[/quote]
