We are currently in an era where men and women have equal rights to education and as well own a job. In most homes today, both the husband and wife have 9-5 hour jobs, hence both of them are usually not at home. Having kids is another issue. How do you think most families make it work? Though most of them tend to send the kids to borden schools. What is your opinion on this aspect?

My brother is a teacher and his wife a nurse and they have 3 kids, they were terrified at first about how to manage the kids. But, they hired two caregivers and one househelp . They were relieved for the nannies were also their relatives.
Its true that many families today have both parents working and it can be challenging to balance work and family responsibilities there are many ways that families make it work and it really depends on the individual family circumstances.
Well, if the both of them can't make it work, then sending the kids to a boarding school isn't a bad idea either but what matters is that they should always notice when things changed in their kids so as to correct that early.
I have not been married to anyone yet. The fact remains that I may need to manage many different things before I could think about getting married. It is definitely not an easy thing to do in the first place.
This is the reason why parents should try as much as possible to have interchangeable job that is going to afford them the time to take care of the kids and not let strangers do the upbringing of their children completely. It's why parents are encouraged to have their own personal business so that they are going to have time to take care of the kids.
This is something that is not too difficult a task to do as both parents have to cut short the time they spend on their works or business to have a good time with their children for it is very necessary and important to build a good connection with your kids.
It is quite common here that the married couple has a full time job. If they have babies or children, they usually hire a maid or have the grandparents to take care of the babies or children.
That's right I agree with you. Hiring a nanny could be one solution. However, if the salary that the wife earns breaks even with the cost of the nanny's salary, then it is better for the wife to give in to resign from her job and raise children and take care of their household. Even being a housewife nowadays you can do business from home.
It is also not good for the wife to resign. They can hire a house helper who can manage the house and the needs of the mom. It is not hard unless mom very sick.
I really don't know how families make it these days with both husband and wife working. Some of them I see hire nannies to take care of the kids. I don't know if the kids feel the presence of a parent when they are always not around.
The economic situation has made everyone to step out to work creating a rise in the demand of another skill that was hitherto unrecognized. And that is the nanny profession.
The problem is nowadays it's not easy to find a trustworthy nanny. Often children become victims of caretakers who are not trustworthy, making a wife prefer to resign and take care of her own children and home.
The formula is for you to work and earn enough to take care of your family and from there, you use it to pay a nanny that would be taking care of your kids while you work. B
