[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We just made really different choices when our kids were young, including living in a much lower COL area. Grandpa watched them while DH worked from home until they were 2. Then into morning preschool, extended into afternoon preschool at 3. Grandpa watched them from 3 to 6. I worked an intense full time job. From around the time they were 3 to kindergarten age, DH had the big full time job and I stayed home and freelanced. When they hit kindergarten, I went back to work part-time, nights. At middle school, I went part time, days. We didn't have kids until our late 30s so this was a big-picture plan. [/quote] So you never had two working parents? Yeah that seems to be a popular option. But necessitates a career that allows you to work in a low COL area with good schools. We would happily go part time but neither of our jobs allows it. [/quote]
