I worked when my children were growing up. Sometimes it was full time and sometimes part time. We always found time to give our children quality time and values. They grew up knowing that they had choices and they would have to live with those consequences. They were disciplined but hardly ever because they knew what was expected of them. We tried to be good role models and give them rules to live by. It is not the quantity of time but the quality of time spent with your family. I find today that parents let the children make the rules and they give into them because it is easier. There does seem to be a lack of responsibility and respect today in our world. I am lucky that I was able to work and had good sitters and schools for my children.
