[quote=Anonymous]You need to just grab the bull by the horns and get help - whether by finding a sitter the grassroots way or calling up an agency and paying premium for a few weeks. Neither of you can do it all when the other is away. Given you have two young kids the likelihood of one of the kids getting sick while you are gone is also there. Having backup care is practical. All the posters posting that the mom is a wimp or whatever - seriously shut up. Everywhere around the world and since the beginning of time parents have had extra help caring for kids. Throw in a career and suddenly a mom is a wimp for not being able to shoulder it all on her own. This is BS and such toxic messaging to married couples. Raising kids is hard and getting help doesn’t make one an incapable or incompetent parent. What it does do is make people feel inadequate, anxious and scared to ask for help. I want to raise kids who are humble and willing to get help when they need [/quote]
