Sure, but I was surprised when portia9 posted her kids only have activities at 6:00 or after.

Out of curiosity, about how close would your kids' activity have to be for you to be okay with letting them walk home or ride their bikes home?

Is this is a personl view do you have a cleaning lady?

My housekeeper makes a huge living, more than i do, not more than my dh.

Im not sure what ones income really has to do with affording a cleaning lady, unless you are struggeling to make end's met?

IMo it is a priority issue, nanny and housekeeper comes befor expensive clothes manicures pedicures, pricy trinkets for the home, color and cut's, fancy car's, fancy homes ect.

Iam a pretty simple individual.

Currently, I have a lot of say over a couple of the activities, but then again, either dh or myself run those activities....so we set the time.

Math, science, reading, social studies (history), writing ... they may be other stuff, but I haven't looked at their syllabi in a while.

I do not lock up all our valuable thing's when Amy my housekeeper is here cleaning my house, shoot, i borrow her valuable things as she will borrow mine.

This women help's me, tremendously, if she was to steal from me, id hope she would hold herself responsible and admit her mistake, like any normal adult should do. If not i would have to let her go.
