By sharing information, experiences and resources through such a global connection as we have here, we can work together to realize the dream every parent, throughout history, has strived for. It's like asking a ring master how he runs his circus. A working parent and a ring master could struggle with similar thoughts to come up with an answer. It's easy for a parent to stumble with career clarification. For most parents, this is just not an option.
Life goes on, and so do careers.
However, parenthood and your paid vocation are ever-interwoven now. You need both to thrive, and both need your focus, commitment and faith to survive as well. You'll learn from career counselors and workplace experts across the nation how the age of career flexibility has arrived, why more and more employers are open to the telecommuting option, and how working at home can fit into your long-term career goals. Today home businesses are enabling parents like you to forge ahead professionally while staying behind domestically, where you can care for, teach and enjoy your children on a daily basis. While you may not at first consider yourself cut out for self-employment, you may very well find that parenthood itself has in many ways prepared you for this work option.
