Sorry for all the "complete and off-base bullshit," AK.
I'm giving you advice from my gut and heart, as a real-live human being on planet Earth who can relate to the very practical needs of a wife and mother. As fascinating as that perspective is, and for what it's worth.
We all have our own perspectives and are operating from our own basis of reality. We all have our opinions of what seems outlandish.
It's your journey, of course. You are an intelligent and open-minded woman. I'm confident that you know how to take collective advice and decide what is true and right for you and the kids. Though, it must be overwhelming and I know that you are working and thinking so very hard.
