Spoken like a single guy?

Send the wife to work. Send the kids to daycare.

Wife gets to socialize, kids get to learn and interact with other kids. You get a peaceful space to work. Everyone profits =)

That's my experience anyways, I have a wife and 2 year old and have been working from home for about 8 years.

Nope, my long-term, live-in girlfriend and I are about to celebrate our 5th anniversary. No kids though. That said, one of my (also works-from-home) coworkers just had his third kid; he has a similar philosophy and just maintains a home office.

Fair enough. I have a home office; used it for years, even with 3 youngsters. Closed the door, they (mostly) stayed out. It works good enough!
