[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did the older GenX and younger baby boomers in dual working households get it done? Not teleworking — not in 1999, 2001. And no professionals in DC lived near their moms then so that also isn’t the answer I do think commutes weren’t an hour+ each way then. But mainly we just … did it. [/quote] Mom stayed home until I was in 4th grade. We went to a parochial school so no busses so my sister and I walked home 2 miles from school and microwaved a hot pocket for snack/dinner. My mom's office was 5 mins from the house (my walk home from school was further than her commute to work) and my dad's office was maybe 10 minutes from home (he came home for lunch and lot). [/quote]
