[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no way I would go to work in an office until my kid is in high school. [/quote] I have high schoolers. I was hired into a fully remote position 2 years ago but the new administration made us all “return” last spring and I am now working in an office I had never worked in nor would I ever have chosen because the PM commute is 90 minutes. It is dreadful and not made much easier by the kids being in HS except for the older one who can now drive. The younger one still needs a lot of support she can no longer get from me. Our family life and my health are deteriorating but I am the breadwinner (single parent) and can’t afford to quit or take a large pay cut. TLDR high school isn’t that much of a change, the kids still need a lot of parental involvement. We may be lucky because my older son got recruited for his sport and college application process was simple but boy it would have been much better if I’d have been able to be home more.[/quote]
