- saiya-jin 5y agoEach case is very individual. I am still on WFH, but now its my own choice, to have more free time (and a bit of stressful crunch if too many issues meet at same time). I've spent more time in past 2 years with my small kids than I would before covid in maybe 10 years of daily office work & commute. First 3 years are invaluable time for personality building. For that only, regardless of all extra free time to do chores, pick up packages, go for walks/runs/exercises etc. it was worth it, very special time and bonds created. But yeah without kids craving for all attention they could get it would suck much much more. Even though it was hard, much harder than go for a break from kids to the office like many dads used to do.
