@trinny My son’s current school doesn’t offer a part time option and we were / are currently both full time working parents. But after reading these comments I am thinking for my daughter that I will keep her home longer, and then put her in a part time program.

@remims I wish. My field tends to be difficult to find part time work in.

@missflora I really do want to, I am just nervous that I’m idealizing what it will be like and may regret this decision, so trying to think about everything. I’ve never been someone who loves my job or working, even though I consider myself very privileged with my career. But I have always...
