[quote=Anonymous]I think what the OP is saying is very accurate as someone who has BTDT. I am in a similar position and keep a very part time job and do extensive volunteer work with a home for women that are escaping abuse. From picking up toiletry donations to scouring thrift store racks for clothing, to advertising and picking up baby and kid needs, I am very busy and love my “cause.” However, if my child is sick I stay home. I take vacations as a family when my husband can plan one. As a PP said, my husband does have vacation time, but it has to be carefully planned, not just taking a day off to stay home for a week when child A has the flu. I do all the household management tasks so when my husband is home, it’s all family time. He’s not running to the dry cleaners or picking up dog food. His time with us is precious and we use every second. OP, I would stay with your job and find some volunteer work that suits you to add in. I am not local or would be recruiting you to help us :)[/quote]
