“Looking after children is a low-status occupation. It is isolating, frequently boring, relentlessly demanding and exhausting.”
― A Life's Work: On Becoming a Mother
― A Life's Work: On Becoming a Mother
“The business world tells us to focus on what we're best at and delegate or outsource the rest. However, this doesn't work with all your roles, or in every situation you may find yourself in. For example, when applied to parenting, nobody can replace YOU as the parent, not even your spouse. You must act within that role, even if you aren't very good at it, because nobody else can truly take your place.”
