[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to work part time when the kids are in middle school and high school. I am the primary earner. [/quote] Don't you think working PT was more important when they were younger?[/quote] No - that is why I worked full time then. I witnessed the trouble that MS and HS got into with no parents at home as my SIL got pregnant in HS b/c no one was home and she had the house to herself. I also thought the compounding effect of savings was more important so working FT enabled me to max out my 401K as well as save for college. Now we have over 200K in a 529.[/quote]
