[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't give up an excellent job with a $400K salary, after all the years you spent building your career. Especially since you can WFH 2 days/week. Without that bit of flexibility, I might consider quitting but otherwise I would make those two evenings and weekends count.That's 4 days/week that could potentially allow meaningful qualiy time with the kids, and I think that's pretty solid. I have less than that (often have to work weekends) and make far less money.[/quote] Agree with this. If you're outsourcing everything possible, you probably have more time with your kids than many working moms who also have demanding jobs but with no flexibility and less $$ for outsourcing. Quality time is far more important than quantity. And they'll be increasingly busy too. At this point, it wouldn't matter if I were home. Between school, ec activities and socializing with friends, my kids are barely home most evenings anyway.[/quote]
