[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If someone is going to actually "outsource child raising". If they are going to raise their child, with the support of a live in nanny to provide coverage when they work, that's totally fine. [/quote] Their work demands long hours and global travel for their public health research projects.[/quote] A busy career is one thing, constant long hours and global travel is another. My father is a retired law partner. He had to work very long hours and travel a ton while I was growing up. He was very present with us when he was home, but if he’d been the default parent, my siblings and I wouldn’t have been nearly as well cared for. I don’t think a live in nanny is enough. Are there very involved grandparents or aunts/uncles? The child needs family around if a parent isn’t going to be able to prioritize spending time at home. [/quote]
