[quote=Anonymous]I have three kids and have always worked fulltime. I've made adjustments at various points in my career (stepping out of management roles, moving to positions less "in the hot seat", a little more telework, etc.) but now with all three kids in elementary school, I still feel like working 40+ hours is not ideal and I want to explore the option of working part time in the near future. Setting aside the question of finding a position (which I know isn't easy) and whether it would work for us financially, I wanted to see if other moms who switched from full to part time work found that it was sufficiently helpful in bringing work-life balance. Or, did it actually create more stress (i.e. less time to get work done but expectations to do more with kids, too much of a financial hit, etc.)? And how many hours did you work per week, since part time can be many things? Anyone care to share their experience? [/quote]
