[quote=Anonymous]My problem is that I thought it would get easier as the kids get older, but it isn't, it's getting harder.  I'm not sure how long I can continue on this treadmill and am wondering if I need to make major lifestyle changes or if it gets easier.  Are any of you dual working households?  How do you do it with two schoolage children? We have a 3 year old and a 7 year old both with very different needs and I'm afraid it will continue to get harder as they get older since the older one takes up most of the time.  The logistics of just coordinating everything takes hours out of my day.  The older child's needs are extensive now.  Understanding the public school program through my child's eyes, helping with homework, driving to sports and cub scout activities, trying to arrange playdates, teaching responsibility and character skills, empathy, eating and hygeine habits,  keeping up with the house and bills, trying to have a social life, have more time for my spouse, exercise to get back in shape, etc, etc. TIA for any help.[/quote]
