  • You have small Children

    I have a 2 yr old son that I stay at home with him. But I am unable to go to the night parties with my husband. Anybody having the solutions for these?

    Get a Maid for your son.

      Alternate your husband staying home one week you the next.

      Or find friends that don't mind coming to your house (put the kid to bed at a normal time, enjoy the company after)

      Or realize the life of a parent isn't quite as much fun in the party department as non parents

        I'm not sure what you mean by "night parties".

        Find another couple with a small child, and swap babysitting -- that way you both get date nights, without spending money on a babysitter.

          Trade babysitting with friends. Agreed.

          My kids are 3/5 now and we are just starting to feel comfortable with the babysitter thing (& the expense). In the past we traded babysitting with close friends.
