[quote=Anonymous]I am grateful that I have never felt like I couldn’t meet my child’s needs while working. I am a teacher so summers have always been home. I was miserable on maternity leave and those first few summers and ready to go back to work quickly. Now that he’s older I would enjoy being home, but it’s unnecessary since he’s at school all day. Working allows me to outsource tasks I’d complete during the day (yard work, house cleaning, grocery shopping). Would it be fun to be the classroom volunteer or pta president? Sure! Would it enhance DCs life? I don’t think so. Maybe if I had 3+ kids it would feel more necessary, but with 1 it has never felt logical.[/quote]
