Just wanting people's thoughts and opinions please.
Since having children 11years ago I have always worked 2-3 days a week. Upto 3 years ago grandparents looked after kids a day a week after school.then I took a job which was school hours so they just helped out 3 days a week in the holidays.
Im seriously considering going back to work full time. I'm starting to feel bored as my kids aren't as "needy" anymore (8 & 11 yrs), and feel I want to be more than "mum". Also, we really do need for more money to come in to the household to pay for extras such as holidays and family days out. My husband has a great job and does all he can and is not pushing me to do this. I have a real desire to give this a go and I've seen a job that is right up my street but is full time. I know people can be funny about working mums etc but I really admire women who do it. I've discussed it with my kids as the eldest is off to senior school in September and they are "go for it mum!".my eldest said that he thinks that I should give it a go as you are better to have regrets than not try at all.l would also be interested to here from people with children at senior school - how do u manage without afterschool club?
Many thanks in advance x
