[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My experience is different. The older my children got, the more they needed me at home (and like having me at home). And while they enjoyed aftercare in the warmer months, it wore off as the school year went on and they just wanted to be home. Having time to do homework, class projects, cook dinner and spend quality time with them in the afternoon became a real chore. Throw in afterschool activities and/or sports and the week became a nightmare of obligations. I lived my life for the weekend. Not a good way to live life. [/quote] I agree with this. The older my kids get, the harder the evenings are. In essence, between making dinner, helping with homework, transporting to activities, I basically have a 2nd job from 3-8. And it's a much more demanding job than my 6-2 position. This is my kids first year not in after school care and they are loving the freedom. [/quote]
