[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's is what the women partners told me before I became a partner: you can't be both. If you want to stay in the practice and succeed, delegate, delegate, delegate, both at home and at work, but mostly at home. You need back up plans for your back up plans. Some had various combinations of the following: live in parents, nannies, au pairs, SAH or flexible spouses, always full child care coverage options (not always needed, but always available) from 7-10 pm, plus weekends; cleaners; laundry service; food delivery, meal prep (several had home chefs or full service housekeeping); tutors; sometimes drivers for the kids.[/quote] I would have walked out the door right then and there. When are you delusional women going to realize that you are being asked to "delegate out" the very fabric of your lives?[/quote] The truth is that an important career is their priority. Not to say they don't love their kids, but the career is #1.[/quote]
