[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot believe how many moms think oh well I had it tough so other moms should too. I had a very toxic job at one point— I would Never want someone else to have that job. I want things to IMPROVE. [/quote] Amen! We should be going forward, not backward. The complete lack of flexibility makes things more difficult than they should be. I don't understand why posters here can't empathize and want things to be better for all of us. [/quote] This is the crux of it. Too many people who feel they suffered so everyone else must too. No one saying that before was BETTER. Because it wasn't. Flexibility is better for families and work didn't suffer. This is arbitrary BS designed to make things so hard that PEOPLE QUIT. That's the goal. How can others be so heartless and soulless that they *enjoy* and *justify* the idea of making things harder for families. That going backwards is good because everyone should suck it up like they did. All these "suck it up" posters would have gobbled up the chances at flexibility if they had been offered back then. They are liars if they say otherwise. So. Many. Aholes.[/quote] Nope, we just made better more realistic choices. Smaller, less fancy homes closer to work. One car that's older and not luxury. A parent working PT or mommy-tracked or whatever was necessary to making family life work with young children. You can make these choices too. You just don't want to. Own it. [/quote] DP. I AM the part time mommy tracked parent now wasting 10 extea hours a week in traffic. Mind you, part time hours come along with part time pay but still full time childcare expenses. [/quote]
