[quote=Anonymous]DH and I both work full time with 45 min. commutes one way. Kids are in kindergarten and second grade. We don't take off for school events b quad it would take too long to drive back to school from work then turn around and go back to work. Our long term goal is that one of us will work part time when the oldest reaches middle school. We want a parent to be home after school at that age. The benefits to working now full time are: save money for retirement at an earlier age, advance career now, afterschool care is say and convenient at elementary age compared to middle school age, kids will barely remember if you volunteered at school in early elementary vs. being around after school when they are 11 to 18.[/quote]
