[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have three young kids. My career is at an inflection point and I’m considering taking a pause to be fully present with my kids. If your kids are out of the little kid phase - looking back, do you think it matters to have a stay at home mom? Do you regret working full time or staying home full time? Or are you happy that you continued your career or stayed home? I would love to hear how parents whose kids are older reflect on working vs staying home. [/quote] My kids are 12 and 14 and I mommy tracked, as did my husband, and I am extremely happy with my choice but recognize each family has different optimal choices. I personally would not be able to stay at home without a job, but WFH is perfect. I really like who my children are becoming as people. I don’t know if they are as academically advanced as they should be but I think they have resilience to get what they want in life.[/quote]
