purpose of being working mom

can anyone tell me why we ladies nowadays insist on working, even if we face so many problems in our day to day life. why are we ourselves making our lives complicated.

i'm working in a law firm in okhla, i've a kid ...going to be 2 in december, i'm staying with my in laws in ghaziabad. as i am working in a corporate firm, i always get late in the evening and moreover since the commuting distance is of around 2 hrs...so i reach home till 9.00 or 9.30....till that time my mother in law had already cooked the meal....after i reach home for 10-15 min. i play with my child then have my dinner, do some remaining household chores and by 10.30 or 11.00 go to sleep. in morning also, my office starts at 9.45 and i have to leave from home by 7.45 at any cost otherwise i get late....so i wake up at 6.00....play with my child for 10 min or so.....again do some household chores....prepare my breakfast atleast and then leave..........

i don't have time even to know about what is going around in the world....neither i see tv (since it is in my in-laws room) and nor can i read newspaper in the morining (since i don't have that much time)....

therefore, nowadays.....i'm don't feel proud at all for being a working mom instead i keep on thinking why i'm working when i can't give what my son needs at this moment, i.e., the time..........i have begun to think that i'm runnning after money and losing the very preicous span of my life.....i.e. to be with my child when he need me..........

i don't know....i'm very depressed.....i think al this and cry at many times....even at the time when i'm writing this post i'm crying.........

and you know worst of all....my husband is working in ahmedabad from last one year........although now he is trying his best to come to delhi but he don't want me to leave the job.

just tell me is there any significance of being a working mom.....

Your frustration is justified.I am a mom of 5month old angel.I m also working and feel this at times.But life is urs and can mould to your convenience.First of all dont handover your life to husband n in-laws.There shud b no compulsion for u to earn from ur husband.It shud b by ur wish.U can take a long leave till ur child moves to play school.Why dont u think of shifting to such a place where u travel for only half an hour or less?It ll reatin ur energy n make ur child attched to u.Bring ur husband asap to delhi so that he ll become a soother for ur sorrow.This phase is experienced by all working moms.But after child's 3yrs mom doesnt know what to do at home n an educateed lady like u feels a vacuum in life.Better take atemporary break from job or shift to a place of ur convenience prioritising ur feeling upon ur family's.Dont try to be a superwoman satisfying all.U get corroded in the process.
All the best.

Don't leave your job, try to find a job in Ghaziabad. I myself is 5 months pregnant and face many problems while working, more in commuting by bus and autorickshaws. But I had not give up. I will work any how. Today every thing is very uncertain. Don't feel guilty for not giving enough time to your child. Enjoy every moment to the fullest when u are with child forgetting every thing and discuss this issue with your partner too. A child needs both mother and father.


Always have good ideas what are you talking about

In life there are few compulsions which no one knows where to leave them. I feel sorry for your plight but life will take its own route to solve your problem sooner or later.

so what ever time you get out of your tight schdule just enjoy it with your kid . Your profession needs evening sessionss for next day preparations and whole day in courts .

Hello Monica

Wellsaid That If You Have Kids There Is No Option Other Than To Look For Your Kids ,it Is A Complete Job.
Nowadys It Has Become A Fashion That Young Generation Is Desiring A Professional /working Lady To Marry Though They Don't Know Hazards Of Being Working By Their Wives.instead They Are Earning Well.

If Your Financial Status Allow ,you Immediately Convince Your Husband To Leave The Job And Try To Do Something From Your Home.

Keep Your Skill/profession For Futrue/ Any Emergency.

All The Best
Asoo thumbs_up
