I feel similar. I do understand that we may be outliers, but perhaps not as much as I may think.
Our two kids, boys aged 8 and 10 now, have become close as can be best friends. They were always tight, but during covid, they became super tight. And as a family, we have become more connected and loving. I got to work from home about half the time, my wife can work wherever she wants (generally at home but many times on road trips and "vacations").
Not having to commute 30 minutes a day, not having to pay for parking on downtown, not having to navigate tight schedules, not having to be at work late into the evening, etc. All that has greatly increased our quality of life. Our kids still got to play and hang with neighbors and other friends during this whole thing.
There are definite downsides, for sure. Most paramount not seeing distance family as much as we would like, especially my mom and dad who are high risk. But overall, I think going forward, we will have a much better work/life balance and our family is a stronger unit than it was.
