FIRE with Young Kids: Is It Possible?

Has anyone here achieved financial independence and retired early (FIRE) while raising young children? As a 36-year-old dad of two energetic kids, I often wonder how others manage the balance between enjoying more time with family and ensuring long-term financial security. Personally, the idea of being present for every milestone is incredibly appealing, but I also worry about the unpredictability of expenses as the kids grow. Our journey so far has been filled with both excitement and anxiety, especially when considering future education costs and healthcare needs. If you’ve taken the leap into FIRE with little ones at home, how do you handle the challenges? What strategies have worked for you, and what would you do differently?
