[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are a two parent household, but both with inflexible, high demand jobs. It's stressful to add something new and it the uncertainty of how things will work out is hard. But, we have found that it does work out. Do you know your neighbors and the parents of your kids' friends? You really need to build relationships in your community, especially as your kids age and their activities get more intense.

Having your younger kids walk/ride the bus home is the solution here. You will only be missing them getting home by a few minutes, it sounds like. And once your older son sees which friends are in MS sport with him, see if you can set up a carpool with other parents in your neighborhood. Then you might only have to have your younger kids arrive home alone a couple days a week. For weekends, it's the same. You have to get to know the parents on your kids teams and you have to be willing to ask for help. [b]Most people are more than willing for a single parent. [/b]For us, since we've decided to have demanding jobs that also pay alot, we outsource a lot of things instead of asking for favors, but I bet you don't have the disposable income to do tha.

OP is not a single parent.[/quote]
