[quote=Anonymous]Did it while the kids were in school, 24 hours per week. The key is to be able to afford the pay cut and to set boundaries, so that you only work the number of hours you are paid for. I loved it, because I could volunteer for Halloween and Valentines Day parties, take off for random school's closed days, and still have time with adults and feel like I was contributing to our family. The down side, while at work, you're thinking about what's needed at home, when at home, you're thinking about what needs to be done at work. And you dont fit in anywhere: The SAHM's look down their nose at you because you work, and the working moms are jealous that you don't have to work FT. And, it's what worked best for me and our family. I wouldn't have changed a thing[/quote]
