[quote=Anonymous]This depends entirely on the kids and parents involved. There is no 1 right way for everyone. Also, it would be hard to impossible to predict which is better for your kids in your specific circumstances. For us, I was a SAHM when my kids were little and went back to work when they started school. They’re now upper elementary and my son has been struggling and has actually asked me to leave my job and stay home again so he no longer had to do before/after school care and can “just be home” more. I’m considering it bc I feel my kids may need a parent home/a slower pace of life as they enter middle/high school & I’ve heard from parents of older kids how important that parental involvement can be as kids move into adolescence. Is that what’s best? It’s hard to know. But I feel the kids need their parent more present maybe even more now than when they were little. So that’s a problem I actually see and could potentially address now rather than an unknown future situation wrt college. [/quote]
