[quote=Anonymous]I'm a liberal but honestly there's such a thing as family values. It's a choice of work/career focus v being a mom. As kids get older you drive them a lot. Like my second job is driving activities even with carpools. It's no joke. Kids are a full time job unless you luck out and have perfect kids which I have friends who do. But even then one parent has the flex to drive/be on call as needed. Careers take a lot of work. Flex in a job is awesome but on some level your time and focus is going to be on that career if it's a high visibility job which most are if you're that career oriented. One parent has to be avail but more than that you have to choose if you want the pressure of balancing kids and career. If you need the money that's one thing but make no mistake that C Sandberg Lean In BS is a huge lie. You really cannot have it all work at the same time. [/quote]
