[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If anyone ever said that to me, I would probably say that I’ve sacrificed many parts of my career to be the parent I want, but I want to maintain a professional career to ensure I can support my family’s financial future. That is the truth, I’m not killing it per say in either category. I’m striking a careful balance between downgrading at work so I can be present for my kids on a daily basis, while also utilizing quality childcare as needed so I can help provide for them today and in the future. [/quote] This. I also had a SAHM and then a Dad who got cancer out of nowhere at 36. So I've lived through the stress I worrying Dad might die combined with Dad being unable to work and mom suddenly scrambling to get a job so we didn't lose the house. So I'm never going to give up my job, I've got good life insurance and good long term disability insurance, as does my husband.[/quote]
