[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious about the people who get together with friends at least once a week. Do you work full time? If so, how do you have the time?[/quote]

I am a person who said I hang out with friends at least weekly.

I have a high schooler and middle schooler and I find these years to be the easiest for socializing.  Kids can be left home alone as needed and have their own things going on.

-High schooler is about to drive and is getting her driver's license as soon as she's able to (she wanted to do this).  She also goes to our local public and can walk home from school if needed and often gets rides or if she does need to be picked up, it's very quick.  Her main activity is at the school.  There is still some driving around on weeknights but pretty minimal...usually 1x a week.  Social life on the weekend, she's often being driven by other teens.   Once they all start driving or have older friends who drive, your time should really be freed up considerably. 
-Middle school kid plays a club sport and does another sport recreationally.  We have carpools.  So driving some but plenty of times not driving.  Both parents don't always attend all weekend games. 
-Probably most important I have an equal partner spouse who does a lot.  We divide and conquer and when one of us has plans, the other steps in.[/quote]

And yes, I work full time.[/quote]

Also to address person who said they are helping a HS kid with homework, I am not doing this at all.  To be honest, I couldn't help.  They are far past what I could do in math and the rest of it they have under control.  I occasionally proofread or do a light edit on a paper that's about it.

I think helping HS kids with homework is unusual?[/quote]
