I was a teacher one year ago, this year I am being a "full time" mother. A part time baby sitter is helping me to look after my 20 month-old-girl three days a week, then I would go out for around 3 hours being a private tutor ...so
Let's have a sharing...
A full time mother really gives her kids the best, because mother is staying and taking care with them always. This is the BEST GIFT for them. Money is not the most important ! (I give up a good salary .)
I miss my lovely students , but I love my Beloved baby more...........I do want to take care my family with whole heart!!
In the past days " 我大使慣 " hahaa... so in my condition I couldn't have a wild throw away of money now !!
Being a part time tutor that keeps me a bit working and also making some pocket money la...
:-( :-( :-( :
just wondering if have struggled a while before making this decision? Before I was pregnant, I was struggling if I really want to quit my job and be a full time mom. I was treated very badly after I have told my boss and I have complainted the case of being discreminated to our HR dept and I was allowed to get full paid leave 3 weeks before my maternity leave. Then I decided to take this chance and quit. I handed in my resign letter the first day I got back to work... 3 weeks later my resignation, my ex-colleague told me that she got sacked.. Aiya...... Anyhow, I've been trying to be a good housewife.
I don't have other income like you do...just the pocket money from my hubby....
I agree with u, this is the best decision for my baby, but no more shopping queen, no more high tea all the time.. :-(
Yes I have struggled a short while before I want to quit my job, I share the ideas with my husband and let him understand caring a child is the first duty of "us". He does agrees with me. ( We don't want our chid growing with maid...)
Besides, I know that once I quit my job, I can't provide $$$$ myself being a shopping queen, no more high fashion, no more high tea, no more traveling often, no more "mine far dive" ....... no " big fish big meat " ( "middle fish middle meat" only )
BUT my baby is the power to push me to keep a "simply" life. It is a really big but not difficult decision. I enjoy being a full time mother more than a busy teacher ( although my students like me so much ). When my baby girl is smiling at me sweetly, I do know I give her the best!!
Thus, I am having a part time job because I don't want to make a TOO BIG $$ pressure on my husband.
Just a little sharing with you. Would you mind telling what did you do before? Any helper or maid for you now? ADD OIL!!
