[quote=Anonymous]I had a SAHM mostly. My brother and I would ride bikes, swim, or watch tv. Once or twice we went to the beach to stay usually with other family members. When I was a teenager I had to watch my cousins (baby/toddlers) all summer. I don’t feel like my kids are missing out. Their summer care may be more structured but they do stuff—go bowling, go to arcades, etc. Then my kids come home around 1-2 and swim in the afternoon, and attend a karate class a few nights per week. We also go on 1-2 vacation/staycation during the summer. My twins will be 10 in a couple of years and have said at that point they are too old for childcare. No biggie, I work from home. But they won’t have to sit home all the time, my husband is off 3-4 days during the week due to his profession. They can go have lunch with him, or he can run them to the library, hang out with their neighbor friends, or attend week long camps once per month.[/quote]
