Is this selfish? I have been able to stay home with my children since they were born, and work as a medical transcriptionist from home. I am very grateful that I was able to do this. My youngest child started kindergarten back in September.
I will be honest. I am terribly bored working at home. I want to work around other people, have someone to take a lunch break with, be around other adults. I work all day on my computer and go back and forth to this site (which I love and has helped me with my weight loss greatly) and e-mail, etc. My dilemma is that when my children have time off, I want them to be able to be at home, not in a day camp or something, but truthfully, now at ages almost 6, almost 9, they are bored when they have to stay home all day.
Am I being selfish to want a job even though that means part of the time my children will have to go to camps and/or day care. I just don't know how much longer I can stand seeing the walls of this house.
