[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would ask. A job is a just a job. If you’re not ready to go back, you should advocate for yourself, whether that means asking for unpaid leave or quitting. I took maternity leave with every intention of coming back at the end of it, but a combination of PPD, Covid, and difficulty finding childcare led me to quit at the end of it. The place I left was a toxic dump anyway. Do I wish things had worked out differently? Yes, partially because I don’t want to give moms on leave a bad name. But I had to prioritize my own well-being and that of my baby. [/quote] Can I ask why you think this gives moms on leave a bad name? I think I understand but want to clarify. It’s so hard that people think this. [/quote]
