there are days when i really just want to quit and focus on raising my son! today is one of those days... to start with, i went home at about 1am this morning trying to beat a work deadline. of course, my son was fast asleep when i got home. when i left the house this morning, he was crying and crying since he didn't want me to go. practicality dictates that ic ontinue working, but shouldn't my priority be my son?? This is so difficult...

i'ts really difficult to be a working mom specially when you are about ready to work in the office and then suddenly your child will cry and cry begging not to go and stay at home to play with her instead..but i think working mom would also consider the extra income she might bring into the family and i could help a lot to sustain family expenes.

I have the same problem as yours. I was a working mom too but not anymore. I have just quit my job. My last day at work was only yesterday hehehe. Yup, that's true. I really wanted to raise my 6month old son myself so I made the toughest decision in mylife. I've worked for that company for twelve long years. Last 2005 I got married and the next year 2006 I gave birth to my son. After that I'm never the same at work.I just can't concentrate anymore.My mind is always with my son. So I quit.I love my son more than my 12 year old job.
