I agree...the grass isn't greener. My house was clean, the laundry was done, and we had "gourmet -style" dinners every night...but once I picked the kids up from school, we all had attitude problems, we fought about homework, which took hours to complete, we never had fun time for the family and "studying" took all night so no one could do extracurriculars.

ETA: A mom in our homeschool group has a 2yo, twin 6yos, and a 9yo. Once a week a homeschooled teen stays with her older kids while she takes the toddler alone for two hours. I thought that was a pretty cool arrangement.
