[quote=Anonymous]I have an arrangement like this with a neighborhood mom. We both have flexible jobs, so trade off playdates on school closing days so at least one of us can be productive. Our kids are in K, but I really can't count of getting much done when they are both here and usually take leave and/or work at night or extra on other days to make up the time (and my husband comes home early so I can put in extra hours). That said, on those days we both understand that the other is trying to get at least some work done while the kids are in eachother's care so don't raise an eyebrow at TV time or the like. If my kindergartener had a playdate where that wasn't the understanding and I found out that they watched TV the whole time or the mom stayed holed up in her office the entire time I'd probably be a little put off, though I certainly don't expect other parents to be actively engaged the whole time.[/quote]
