I don't have any regrets about the way I raised my kids so I wouldn't change anything. When my kids were little (youngest was 2 at the time), I did quit my full time job with benefits to go part time to be there for them. Really, what I lost in wages, I gained back in day care expenses. When they became school aged, I took a job at the school so I could have those days off with them too. I enjoyed working, but I also enjoyed being with them, so I had the best of both worlds. When they were old enough to not want mom around anymore, I came back to my original full time job I left when they were little and have been here ever since. LOL.
