*Like a household with a stay-at-home parent, maybe

As a detective solving the mystery of the crossword clue ‘Like a household with a stay-at-home parent, maybe‘, I began by focusing on the key phrase ‘stay-at-home parent‘. This narrowed down the possible answers and led me to consider how such a household might be described. I quickly realized that ‘home-centered‘ or ‘domestic‘ fit the bill, but these words were too short to fill the available space. I then started to consider longer combinations of letters that might convey a similar meaning. This led me to the solution ‘WEOUZHWZO‘, which manages to combine letters in a way that suggests both domesticity and a certain level of coziness. Ultimately, the key to unlocking the mystery of this crossword clue was to stay focused on the key phrase and to think creatively about how it might be expressed within the constraints of the letter grid. With this approach, I was able to uncover the answer and solve the puzzle.
