Hello,
I work part-time at the moment, 2 dcs 6 and 1. Dh is keen for it to be him who works part-time next year, which would mean I go back full-time (which I can) or we both did 4 days, which he thinks is the worst of both worlds. He wants 3 days at work.
I know no-one knows what would be best for us, but I'm wondering how you make the decisions? I'm finding it so hard to work out what I really want, and to divorce it from what he wants, worries about housework being done etc. Financially it doesn't make much difference as we are in the same line of work.
Part of me would like to try full time again as part-time can be so busy, trying to fit it all in. But I would miss my time alone with the dcs and worry about stuff in the house mounting up. Dh is fairly typical in that he'll do jobs he's asked to do, but tends not to "see" them himself.
Any strategies on how to decide, or personal experiences?
TIA
