Yeah, I understand with me going to dayshift would be nice but here is the thing, I have two girls that are 1 year and 3year old plus a 5 year old boy who is in all day kindergarten. I would be taking a $1.50 and hour cut then turn around and find a babysitter for my children which will cost about $300 to $400 more amonth that I do not currently have now....

Seems to me like you just answered your own question...The switch isn't worth it if you are getting paid less and you'll have to pay someone else to take care of your children.

p.s. So when do you actually get some sleep if you are working all night and taking care of all those kids during the day?

Yeah I was wondering the exact same thing. 8588, you are to be admired for what you go through to take care of your kids. That sounds like a rough schedule and it's admirable that you're doing it.

OK, man-love fest is over. So how about that local sports franchise?

Sounds like your mind is already made.
Do whatever it takes to spend time with family. If that means keeping your current job, so be it...if that means getting a new one, then so be it.
Again I say, life is not about money. I'd sell most everything I own to afford children...you have been blessed with 3. If it benefits them, then go for it.
