Dear MEL Topic Readers,
The mothers working from home without childcare
Especially during the pandemic, more child-rearing parents started working
from home as many childcare facilities closed their doors at least temporarily.
It may sound physically accommodating and economically advantageous for those
parents who work and care for their children as they can save the time and
money to send the kids to childcare facilities. But it isn’t as easy as you might
think to work professionally while caring for children at the same time and place.
Children, especially toddlers, need constant attention as they try to do all
stupid things, not to mention their attempts to get attention from parents even
while they are busy talking with customers or writing programs. Even though the
pandemic has waned somehow, not all childcare facilities have resumed their
services as they are struggling with the shortage of care workers and rising inflation.
So, there are a number of working parents, many of whom are mothers, who are
striving to balance the two demanding tasks at the same place and at the same
time without compromising their standards or commitment.
Read the article and learn about the dark side of working from home.
