Care to translate your "bandwidth" analogy into English?
Not having to have three jobs to make ends meet, so that they
actually have
time to spend with the kids.
Three jobs? Why would they need 3 jobs? When we planned to have
kids we decided that Mom would not work till the kids were at
least 14 YO. Sure this meant sailing a Mac instead of a Swan,
driving a Dodge van instead of a Beemer, but you've got to get
your priorities straight.
Too many have it the wrong way today.
Some people are less fortunate than you by having a job that pays less
well than yours. I know a guy with five kids. Both parents work at
least two jobs, with my friend having sometimes worked three when his
youngest had leukemia and he and his wife had inadequate health
insurance.
