Asallamu 'alaikum wa rahmatulLahi wa barakatuh
What I will never understand is why so many people think all kids are the same and all of them need to have a parent in the house.
I am one of the kids who grew up with both parents working, so I didn't see my parents until like, five PM. I'd spend most of my day with the maid or at school.
I didn't really care. Whatever, man. Best to both work so you can support the kids rather than just spend time with them while you're all starving, right? >>;
Maids or babysitters or grandparents or whoever can watch the kids while you're gone.
Don't be all sentimental about it. It won't harm the kids to go without their parents most of the day, so long as they're still there at the end of the night to tuck ya in. Or as they're leaving for their graveyard shift.
