My kids are in school and I am a full-time elementary counsellor. I regret that I didn't take the time off last year to be present for my youngest during his pre-school years. He is turning 5 this year and I am still thinking that I should take a part-time leave from my work to be available for kindergarten activities, before and after school activities, and lunch time. My house is always is in 'rush' mode and it seems to affect my work and my kid's day. Does anyone have any thoughts on this???
