Huh! I thought life was tough as a working woman while single-parenting, but now when I quit my job for my daughter I feel life is even tougher when single-parenting while managing the house.
A working mother is nothing without her strong support system. In India children's grandparents play a major role in supporting a lady who leaves behind her children to pursue her career for whatever reason. Then comes her husband who understands and shares the responsibilities with her of the entire family and the house, and lastly, the children themselves who co-operate and adjust without their parents.
After becoming a mother I realised, respect women but respect a mother even more and value a man who supports his family.
