I believe I have found a balance. I am a mum of 3 beautiful children, and I work from home on the internet. When I was much younger, my first child was only 1yrs old and I owned a cafe, it was so hard, she was in care by someone else and I had little time to see my daughter grow up. When I was off, I was either cleaning or doing book work. But when you are young you need to make the sacrifice to get ahead. Now, I work around my family from myhome. If I'm tired I take it easy and when I have energy I do more. Do you think it's hard for parents to work full time and care for their family?

Yes, after seeing my wife, I feel the family member miss her. It is better to work for couple of hours (either at home or outside for earnings) and then devote the time in family matters. Most women would like to hang on at home unless there is financial compulsion which makes them go out for work. Otherwise they are great home makers.

Wow you have done well, good on you, I don't have children but I see how hard it is, I can't help but admire people who go out and make something of their life, you should be proud of what you have done and now you can reap the benefits and enjoy your family...I think you could teach a lot of people these days a lot...good luck to you.
