For me though, isolation and no contact with fellow workers seems to be biggest worry. I've been working in a corporate set up for ages now and am too used to taking a 20 minute break every few hours to chat with fellows around/share the project status with friends. May be its just that i like having lots of friends around and the idea of suddenly being alone with my PC is scaring me off. Am trying to dabble with working from home, let's see how it goes! Good article! For me though, isolation and no contact with fellow workers seems to be biggest worry.

My 17 year old still hasn't quite 'gotten' it, and will still call me from school asking me to bring forgotten homework assignments, etc. It's hard, but I've found I have to tell him "No, I'm at work" just the same way I would if I were not in a home office. Slowly it's working it's way into his teen brain. My biggest issue is #6.

I can relate to much of what you said. But especially #1 is I think the biggest struggle. It's practically impossible to separate work and business when you have small kids. I find giving them a rhythm to their day really helps. Times that they know you will break from work and they can get outside and play! Very good post. I can relate to much of what you said.
