[quote=Anonymous]11:43 again - just wanted to add that I absolutely agree that there is a point at which extra time at home supporting a new AP becomes TOO much time, and they get dependent. This year because AP was so unable to take care of our children on her own in the first couple of weeks, we had my MIL come to stay with us for my first few days of travel, in week three. I would not have been able to leave home without her there, but on the other hand, i do think it delayed AP's sense of herself as totally in charge. She finally got there, but only once she was in a "sink or swim" situation.[/quote]
