[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a misleading title. This should have been titled “the way to excel in your career as a single mother is to have joint custody and a family member willing to act as a surrogate parent.” Most single parents (and many married ones) wouldn’t be able to leave their own child’s birthday party because they would be the only adult in the room. It sounds like the authors mom doesn’t work at all and just steps in whenever. That’s AMAZING! And not something many people have. [/quote] This. And I wonder how she is going to feel in 20 years when she can’t be there in the same way for her own daughter. Is she going to recognize her mother’s role in her success? Or is she going to blame her daughter for not stepping up “because I did it?” Or are they even going to really be on speaking terms?[/quote]
