[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do folks manage these commutes with small, school age kids? I'm considering commuting from Annapolis to DC and I'm curious about the logistics. Husband leaves too early to do the drop off. [/quote] Both DH and I have lengthy commutes (me 1 hr and him 1.5hr.) Our kids go to private school half way between home and our jobs (well, a bit closer for me.) He goes in early (ie out the door by 6am) and I drop the kids off at before care (7:30am.) I get to work at 8:00 and work till 4:30ish. The kids go to aftercare. On the days I need to pick up, I get them around 5:15 and we get home at 6pm. Most days DH picks up and he gets them closer to 4:30 and is home 5:15ish. It isn't ideal - thankfully the kids love before/after care - but it does make the evenings pretty miserable with trying to get homework/dinner/bath done in time for bedtime.[/quote]
