[quote=Anonymous]80% of my take-home pay goes to daycare for our two kids. Sometimes I wonder if it’s worth it, but I need the mental stimulation of work. Husband and I have both stayed in the same jobs for years and we are no longer star performers. We have passed up promotions and salary increases that would mean more stress and more hours, instead choosing flexibility, which has been really important for our child with special needs. Having one set of grandparents nearby has helped. Our house is not as clean as I would like and our yard needs some attention. We eat more convenience meals and takeout than I care to admit. My kids watch a little too much tv when we need to get stuff done. It’s definitely less than perfect around here.[/quote]
