[quote=Anonymous]I would think the child care part would be really hard. When they're little and get sick you're going to burn a ton of leave on sick days and not have a partner to trade off with. And it's not just the vacation time it's straight up keeping up with your work. Then elementary school which seems to be closed one day every other week for random holidays the working world doesn't recognize. Not getting a break would suck too. You're always going to be on, you can never relax and let the other parent watch the kid. Or if you feel sick you can't switch off and have coverage. But you said she has money meaning rich and doesn't have to work or just has a good job? Also, maybe some of this goes away with family support...maybe...I guess if you have a family member that doesn't work and is available somewhat on demand for sick days. [/quote]
