[quote=Anonymous]We are a blend of A and D. It’s not perfect, but it works for us. I don’t think that either extreme - or the other options - would be better. Our jobs are both “big” enough to give us the lifestyle we want ($400K-ish). They’re not super flexible, we both work in-person on a regular schedule with some travel. But they’re both flexible enough that we can share parenting 50-50 without needing a lot of extra help beyond after-school care (or daycare when they were younger) and the occasional babysitter. It does get stressful sometimes, like when I have to travel Mon-Weds and he’s traveling Th-Fri, or when we have to juggle our individual schedules to cover school events and doctors appointments and such. Of course I would love to earn as much or more with less stress - but this is the balance we’ve found, and it’s working ok. [/quote]
