Career moms are such shit moms, fr. A plague on the entire society. If your children are sick, stay your ass home. If your children are depressed, stay your ass home. If your children are getting bad grades, stay your ass home. If your children have disabilities, stay your ass home. If your children need a proper diet and excersize, stay your ass home. You know what? Just stay your ass home. Fuck your stupid fucking job. Nobody gives a shit about your stupid fucking job. Take care of your kids, ffs. But, let me not continue to mince words...
The smartest trick the Devil ever played, was popularizing the idea of "quality time". Like, how idiotic do you have to be, to think you can cram valuable time with your children into time slots? As if "being a mom" can be planned into your day like it's a teleconference? Oh, we are going to have 15 minutes of quality time, now, kids, and then Mommy has important worksheets to fill out. ☺️

yeah, it's not quality without the end being bedtime
🫂 My ability to work and earn a high wage has always been highly restricted by having kids, but it's worth it. You can work, later. You cannot mother your kids, later.
I just know that I will never lie on my deathbed and think, "Wow, I wish I had dumped my kids in the childcare center and spent more time at the office."
💯
Absolutely not.

I feel sorry for anyone who is so depraved that they are resentful for spending time with their own offspring.

Well, theoretically, at least. I haven't checked in every particular instance or measured, or whatever.
LG is like... Excuse your French, but agree. 😅🤙
Well, there's more than one way to be a bad parent.
Mothers and fathers are physiologically different and their responsibilities lie, therefore, under different focus. Even if they are capable of subsistuting each other.
I have an 17 year-old and a 19 year-old. And I like them.
That's okay. Wait until you find out how much I question your sanity.

Perhaps.
My mom had a high-powered, high-paid job, but she'd drop everything and stay home, whenever she thought we needed her time. She was just so amazingly good at her job, that her employers always put up with it. 😅 She retired early, to help my sister with her kids, and her employers had a full meltdown, but she was like, You may all go to hell and I will go to Texas.
This is actually the ironic thing about the whole debate: The best female employees also tend to be the moms most willing to drop everything for their kids. They are good at focusing and setting priorities, and they discount stuff like "face time" and "office politics" and concentrate on delivering, delivering, delivering. I'm now working for my second mom/CEO and they both prioritize their families over their work, and have zero fucks to give, if that bothers someone. They didn't get where they are by sucking up to Randy at the office and lounging around the coffee machine. *They're* the machine. As am I.

Working alone doesn't make you a career woman. It's a mindest. Guess I'm translating from the German "Karrierefrau".
