[quote=Anonymous]Spend your time banking every penny you can right now. Switch to an in house position with flexibility when kids start elementary school. When you and your husband are playing Rock Paper Scissors over who stays home on a snow day, that’s when the s—- gets real. Daycares rarely close. Your kid will never remember whether or not you were there or not for bedtime at 6 months. You will, but they won’t. They will remember forever that you didn’t come to the booster-thon or the basketball game or that Linda down the street said something snarky about you never being available to drive carpool to swim practice or that they couldn’t join swim team in summer because they have to go to camp instead of swim team practices that are designed for people with an at home parent. I worked for a boutique firm with big law hours until kindergarten and then I quit and started my own firm. Never looked back and now I have near total flexibility.[/quote]
