Depression and anxiety greatly hindered my educational goals, so I only have an associates degree in accounting. However, the woman I married has a master's degree in computer science and a good, well-paying job. Our first child had medical issues requiring full-time care for several years, so I am now a stay-at-home dad to two kids, guiding them through homeschool.

Hey man. I got 2 young kids too, and it is N O T easy. I'm not SAH: we both work, but I can't imagine how tough it is to go it alone every day like that.

Keep up the good work
