I have been at home with my kids since the first DC was born.
I'm now getting divorced and want to work again.
If I was to get a full time 9-5 office job who is responsible for paying for the cost of before and after school care and holiday clubs? Will it be something that both parents pay for, as we would both be at work and unable to look after DCs? Or is it down to me to pay on the days when they are in my care?
If so then it will not be worth my while to work. I will be penilised because I have them the most. I want them the most but I have the smaller budget and earning capacity. Ex earns a mint and wouldn't have to fork out for the care? Not fair?
