[quote=Anonymous]I took a few years off when my kids were super busy in sports. I just couldn't work all day, rush home, rush them out to sports fields, get home 2 hours later, put dinner on the table, clean up and do it all again the next day. Now that my oldest is driving, it's much easier, I can have her take the younger ones to lessons, etc. and I am able to WOHM. I try to leave the office by 4pm and then log back in at home so I can be around after school because I don't want my teens home alone too long. If you can swing it financially, I think taking some time off during the young teen years is good in many regards. Or, if you can go to work earlier, get home earlier, that would be a good option as well. Lastly, try to do what I do, leave work, beat the rush hour home, log back in at home and finish your day remotely. It's unfortunate that employers don't offer more flexible options. [/quote]
