[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same. I focused more on my kids this year because one needed a lot of help in the first year of high school, and my career took a hit. It's the first year in my career that I haven't met my hours goal. It feels like I can't win at both. [b] I know some moms can pull it off, but throw in one wrinkle, like a neurodivergent kid, and it feels almost impossible.[/b] [/quote] This. I left full time work years ago and it never feels fair. But my neurodivergent kid needs more support than any nanny is willing to provide, and was one infraction away from being suspended from group childcare. We now spend our lives in therapy waiting rooms. OP, can you take a break? It gave my family so much sanity back.[/quote]
