Almost none of friends moms worked when I was growing up. I didn't know anyone that went to daycare/after school care
One of the things I’m most grateful for was my wife stayed home with both our kids when they were little. And when she did go back to work she got a job in the school office so even then she was home with the kids.

I grew up in a neighborhood filled with middle class families with young kids. We hit the roads on bikes right after school or the ballfield.
But there were plenty of moms around the neighborhood to beat our asses if necessary, and they all had permission to do so.
We all knew each other. The kids, the parents. People didn't move around as much.

I suspect that all of you made some superficial sacrifices that all too many American adults are unwilling to make today...maybe a couple hundred square feet less house, an older car, meaningless things which too many of us think define us when what actually matters is kids and family. Simply being grateful on your part speaks volumes about your value system which is all too often missing in the world.
