[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 40 with two early elementary school kids and I feel like every week is a whirlwind. I work in the office four days a week and my 30-40 min commute is now an hour plus each way thanks to no more federal telework (I am not a fed). All I do is work, whatever we have going on after school, and collapse into bed. I don't see my husband during week and feel like I am so burnt out from my job and commute that I am not as good of a mom as I can be. Is this just how it is? IDK how I am going to make it to retirement. [/quote] Isn't this the Feminist dream?[/quote] Sure, if your understanding of feminism stopped in 1975. The dream was equal opportunity, not burning yourself out propping up systems that still expect women to do everything at home AND perform like they have a wife waiting for them at home with dinner and a martini.
