What so many seem to forget in this new reality is that school is also not 100% guaranteed and I'm so glad the article mentions it. Half days, , etc there is so much more time during the school year planned and unplanned when kids are home and it seems like the grace that emerged in 2020 for has all but gone.

If you're confused why people are fighting like hell to hang on to or flexibility this is worth a read. I don't keep my kids in the house when I wfh (unless necessary, but that's the next post) so I will have to commute 30 minutes each way childcare. Not having to commute to an office after that is a sanity and productivity saver.

This article also hits on the financial reality of 2 kids vs 3 kids being the young point on the financial scale šŸ˜« the system is broken and if employers really want people they will invest benefits in on site , lobby for universal prek, etc or keep losing talent

You can tell Virginia Woolf didnā€™t have kids because if she did, she would have said, ā€œA woman must have money, a room of her own, and five goddamn minutes to herself if she is to write fiction.ā€
