Her son isn't physically disabled so a big part of being a full time carer IS simply being at home and available. My daughter for example, other than school, can only be with us or with close family for a short time (e.g. For us to attend a wedding or even just occasionally go for dinner). So in terms of work, we have to structure it so that one of us is home at all times.

Having two of us here makes that a possibility; if (God forbid) we broke up or something happened to one of us and thus leave a single parent family, its very likely that that person would have to give up work and become a carer full time, OR find a way to flexibly work from home.
