Work-at-Home Moms – Tips for Summer Child Care
Whether you’re single or married or in a domestic partnership, being a work-at-home mom means you will need some kind of child care in the summer. You might think you can be Superwoman and juggle your at-home job with your kids around, but you’ll probably find it just isn’t that easy.
Even if your kids are able to entertain themselves for a lot of the day, having your kids at home involves a lot more than entertainment. There are falls, accidents, messes, arguments, meals to cook, and other needs for your intervention during the day. And if you have a baby or toddler at home, the need for your intervention is almost constant!
Teens and Their Dads

It is generally true that teens are exploring their independence and may seem to shut you out, but research indicates that just backing off is not a good approach. It turns out that involved dads can have twice the positive influence on their teens as involved moms (who are also important). That’s something to think about!
