Working Parent Math Just Isn’t Adding Up
For many working parents, the equation simply doesn’t balance. The calculus of childcare, work hours, and exhaustion often yields a deficit in time and energy. The financial burdens of childcare, coupled with the emotional toll of navigating both work and parenting responsibilities, can create an unsolvable puzzle. The result? A growing number of parents are forced to choose between their careers and their children. It’s a heart-wrenching decision that no parent should have to make. Working parents deserve policies and support that make it possible to strike a fair balance between their professional and personal lives.
