[quote=Anonymous]I’m not choosing too, but I think the result will be the same - for a while at least. I had just quit a fairly bad job and was starting my search for a new one when the virus closed everything. It’s made sense for my husband to focus on being productive and as valuable an employee as possible on his job while I deal with the kids, household, family etc. We have nice savings and can easily live on one salary for awhile. Looking ahead, I just don’t see that we will get back to a place where we can rely upon school/aftercare/camps for consistent childcare until there’s a vaccine. That could be another year or two away. I have some ideas and contacts for volunteer work to keep me busy when/if the kids are school in the fall but I want to be available for when the schools close again. Once it’s safe, I do plan to go back to work. [/quote]
