Career & Kids – How We CAN

I want to introduce you to Elizabeth over at CareerandKids.

I’m feel both impressed and I inadequate by her resume. She’s a fulltime nurse, married 17 years with 3 children and writes GenBetween and BusyMom.

Frankly, I’m exhausted just thinking about having that much on my plate.

One of her latest posts is about how most mothers working fulltime would take a pay cut to spend more time with their kids.

“I didn’t cry all the time, my job was flexible enough that I could pick up someone from school if I needed to, and, I got home at the same time every day…But, another huge benefit wouldn’t be realized until years later when my mother became ill.”

She wonders aloud Do Mothers Get a Pass on Working Late? and questions whether resentment about mothers is justified.

I dig CareerandKids. Elizabeth shows us how we CAN instead of how we CAN’T. Stop by and check it out.
