But, it is proven that children without proper care and love from parents especially from the mother face a lot of problems as they grow. When they crave for love and affection they are affected psychologically. As you are aware that an idol mind is devil's workshop, this is the time when the child develops bad habits. They become aggressive, they start listening to anybody who is a little affectionate towards them, without even giving a second thought whether they are good or bad. Thus causing harm for themselves and the society.

You can for sure defend yourself, by saying that you are going through this most troublesome phase only for your child. You are earning for his future only. This entire struggle is to keep him happy.

At a later stage, all the money you have will not come and help, once your child follows the bad route.

Now again, you cannot blindly leave your job and start taking care of your child. You will start facing financial problems at home. And you will also be doing injustice for yourself and your career.

Are you getting confused, there are so many mothers who take excellent care of their children even though they go to work. If you plan accordingly you can definitely balance both career and motherhood.

Though you spend most of the time at office, spend some quality time with your child. Show him your love and affection. Make him feel that he means everything to you. Be very friendly with him; share some of the things that happened in your office. So that he will also tell you what happened in school. Wherein, you can easily analyze the behavior of your child, and what is he doing in your absence.

Even if you are tired, see to that you help your child in his studies, do not send him for tuitions, because the only time the child gets to spend with you is in the evening, when you are back from office. Even if he is engaged at that time, you loose the bonding with your child. The child will have so many things to tell you. Listen to him patiently, don't ignore him. Talk to him. Play with him, spend some quality time together.

Therefore choosing between, work and motherhood is highly impossible. But maintaining an equal balance between them is definitely possible.
