[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure I even made that much after paying our nanny when my kids were little. Fast-forward seven years later, I've received one promotion and a couple of modest raises and both my kids are in school, so our childcare costs are minimal. Our office now allows telework three times a week. My salary allows us to send our kids to private school, something we never would have contemplated years ago. I have peace of mind that if something happened to DH or his job, I can take care of my family. We will also be able to retire with a lot more money than we would have otherwise. I came close to quitting so many times when my kids were young but am so thankful that I didn't. [/quote] Thank you for posting. I am one of the PPs who said child care is not a mother's expense and I think your experience is exactly what OP and others in her position need to hear![/quote]
