[quote=Anonymous]My kids are older teens, so their elementary school days were mostly pre-Covid and both me and DH had 45-60 min commutes. My job had good PTO and flexibility to cover sick days and dr appointments. Our schedules were staggered so DH had to go in early, but could pick the kids up from aftercare and cook dinner. We limited weekday activities to one night à week and took turns covering them. There was also a lot of outsourcing. Crucially, neither of us had “big” jobs during this time. Mostly 9-5, no weekends and no big stakes if we had to deal with family issues. [/quote]
