[quote=Anonymous]My kids are in public school and ride the bus and we and lots of our neighbors do this. I work from home full time so that right there is half the battle. If I put the kids on the bus in the morning and pick them up from the bus in the afternoon, I am home for more than 7 hours in between. Most days, DH puts them on the bus and then heads to work (short commute) or works from home. I can start working earlier that way and by the time my kids get home I have put in 8 hours or more. During the season that DH coaches, we do the opposite on his coaching days. There are also days when the kids come home and I tell them to get snack and do homework because I still have a little work to do. It all works out quite well on a day to day basis. Snow days, sick days, and teacher work days are a bit harder but we just trade off or do camps for TWD or whatever. [/quote]
