Heh - I also work from home and don’t get alone time (now that they’ve moved in with me), but I very much prefer my family to my co-workers. What is B2B work?
I did work a job where I got no PTO but also no penalty for time off. I know the “if I’m not working I’m not making money” struggle. It sucks and, in retrospect, seems like a scam.
I’ve also made investment accounts for my kid, though I only have the one. Teaching them to appreciate it is definitely important to me, but their world will be so different from my own at that age, if it’s even functional, that I haven’t put too much thought into it yet. At this juncture I think they barely know what money is.
Also, nothing I said was meant to be judgemental. I recently said, in another post, that every parent needs a break sometimes. No criticism to you for wanting time off; though I did miss my kid last time I had some, I was grateful for the period of relaxation I had.
Business to business. Instead of having fixed hours and an employment contract, I bill out the hours as a business and then pay my own salary. Comes with tax benefits if you’re savvy and flexibility that can bite you in the ass or be great.

Gotcha, thank you for the answer. A long time ago, someone recommended that I do that, but I never pursued it.
