[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm WOHM who is supposed to be 30hours a week but I wish I could just be fulltime. But DH works and travels a ton so the "part time" basically buys me the right to put boundaries in place at work. Its hard though to just be in the glorified helper role when I am capable of more professionally but can't lead anything since I'm not always available[/quote] I did this for a while, and ended up cutting back even more so that I had some flexibility in my schedule for sick days and school holidays. Having every minute of every day accounted for was not working. I sometimes wonder what this will do for my career long term. It might have been better to just take the time off completely and come back when kids are older, rather than settling myself in as the “helper.” [/quote]
