There is no way to effectively parent, love your spouse, care for the home, and get work done.

My boss got upset when I missed a 9am meeting on a day when my kid needed to be at school at 8:45am and there is no before care.

I just ignored her and told her that I am no longer able to attend meetings before 11am. Send me the notes. I was on my Naomi Osaka and ready to deal with the repercussions.

This work culture in America is toxic and fucked up. Women used to be at home to handle everything but now that is not the case. Our work culture needs to accommodate families of all types.
