Flexible Working

As a single parent flexible working sounds like the ideal working solution. Juggling the work/family life balance can be very difficult when working a traditional 9 to 5 job. Mums especially feel guilty about not spending enough time with the family and when they are with the family, feel guilty about not spending enough time at work. It is finding the right balance that is difficult. I ask as a parent why do we feel like this?

In previous years 'working from home' required you to stuff an enormous amount of envelopes for extremely low pay, or something similar. Hopefully, these times are behind us and people who find it difficult to 'physically' go out to work have a chance to become successful in their own business or enjoy a career on their own terms.
