[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all I feel for you and please pay no attention to the posters who are criticizing you. But before you break you lease and move I would think carefully about what that would do to your commute. I was in a similar situation and stayed in the expensive close in neighborhood so that I could get to and from work without having to rack up babysitting fees. There can be hidden costs to moving further out. All told I think it was the best solution.

Could you possible negotiate a smaller apartment on the building? A one bedroom or even studio? Not ideal, but neither is a long commute.

I also took on a lot of extra work that I could do from home. It saved me. Again not ideal but then again you aren't going to be out partying!

Please post an update ... I am thinking of you!

I make a similar income, and live in the Fairfax County part of Alexandria. I don't need an extra babysitter to accommodate my commute. My kids go to a center in Old Town.[/quote]
