[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I have this exact schedule right now as full time working parents with demanding jobs. We use the "fast and fresh" or "oven ready" option from Home Chef meals or Factor during the work week. While we are prepping those our son (age 7) watches tv from 6:30-7. We eat dinner from 7 to around 730/7:45. We bring our son upstairs by 8pm for his bedtime routine (bathing/brushing teeth, etc) and then spend 15-30 mins with him reading or practicing math depending on what time we got him upstairs. We take turns reading/practicing math with him based on who is more exhausted that day but we are usually both present during the bedtime routine. Honestly, we just don't end up decompressing during the work week. [/quote]
