[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^women do this all.the.time. Why can't he?[/quote] Agree. Has he given this one moment's thought wrt OP's career?[/quote] Law firm partners who are women do it by either having a husband who doesn't work/has a low stress job or they have a a lot of hired help (nanny, backup nanny, etc). When it got to the point where I was considering 2 fulltime nannies to have adequate coverage, I quit. I didn't want to farm out everything with respect to my children (and I am not against working obviously. I just wasn't comfortable with our children having 75+ hours a week without us. 40 was ok). And that is what it generally means when you are a partner. Usually, that means the other parent picks up the slack. In our case, I was also the default parent and it was pretty much impossible.
