Working Dilema
3 Answers
Just thought i would chuck this out here and see what others viewpoints on this are.
My partner and myself are parents to two of the most adorable children a little girl almost 3 and a little boy 1.
The dilema recently was that my partner was looking for some evening work, 1 maybe 2 nights a week after the little ones had gone to bed for a little extra change and a break from the house. She only ended up being successful in an interview for a job with a more than decent wage for the hours. The problem is that the job is for more hours than she was looking for, on top of that there was 12 weeks training which started in the after noon and finished after the little ones would be in bed. Also that the training would have to start on our little girls 3rd birthday.
Was wondering how much you can give up in the name of money especially how things are these days with the cost of living.
BTW it was decided that she would not take the job as nothing could replace cooking dinner and being there to say goodnight to the little ones.

i wouldnt have took it either i have two toddlers and evenings are our special family time. people often tell me i should work but in my eyes my partner is happy to work we dont scrounge off the government and we are happy. we dont have a lot of money and no savings but you get used to what money you have and have to learn to be happy.
