[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean -- it sounds like you have 20 years in the workforce ahead of you to do something big with your career if you want. People who spend an enormous amount of time on their career are not spending enormous amount of time with their kids. This is true for men too. There really are only so many hours in a day. And, don't be fooled by magazine profiles. [b]If there is someone at your current corporate job who is absolutely killing it in the role but also with really strict work-life balance and never a hair over 40 hrs a week -- take that person to coffee and learn about them.[/b] [/quote] I have found that these people inevitably have local family who help them out - usually local grandparents - or a stay-at-home/flexible-job spouse. I am close to this description and my "best kept secret" is I have an only child and am keeping it that way.[/quote]
