[quote=Anonymous]I have a middle school child and am so happy I am home. Between travel sports and homework I find these years so crucial. If I was working I would not be able to be as engaged. At some point it is just so tiring. I think way better to work when they are babies and stay home when they are older. My daughter definitely appreciates that I am around. I am also not bored. I finally can make the dinners I always wanted to make and I am getting in shape and can drive all over the world for practices and games without the stress of having to create a car pool. I also and really present on homework when my child needs me to be. Lately it is running lines for a play. Again the issue is having the luxury to not be so overwhelmed with work that you miss the good stuff in life. Just plan on less dinners out and learn to color your own hair. With one less salary you have to figure out ways to make it all work.[/quote]
