suggested points are 10 which may change your kids future. Unless a school screens mothers on different aspects, I would suggest you to continue working. It all depends on guidelines. Mrs Monica is also true in her approach, Let us wait for some more time and hopefully with the blessings of all the forum will certainly come forward wih a solution. Because, quiting is in your hand at one go, but joining may not be so easy. Therefore, enjoy working.

I too personally feel that quitting job is not the solution unless there are crucial limitations. Parents who donot have support system at home for their kids can opt for good and reliable day care centres rather than keeping them with maids at home. Also it is very important to spend QUALITY TIME with the kids, once you are back from work. You can even opt for changing job which allows you more time with the kid rather than completely quitting.

I agree quitting the job never works. its an individual's mental state of staisfaction.

Let me share an incident of my life:
My parents used to spend arround 1-2 hrs during tea time in the evening, when we used to talk and laugh. beside this everyone was having their own routien and work.

Now, I understand that those tea time talks were actually the quality time that the family spent with with each other. this time included, sharing incidents, riddles, logical questions, pulling legs of each other and much more.

my mother had a business running in at home till i was in 10th. and she was a bit busy during that time we all used to try to contribute and help her in her activities. And now, we all brothers and sister are highly qualified and are working and best part is we all are a lot satisfied of how we were boughtup. This is what actually matter's at the end.

I can guarantee a many of people reading this might be having the mother as house wife, but still have not got such quality time with their family. Its not the time, but the quality time that matter, its not the mothers time, its the familiy time that matters.

Two schools might reject, but there would be the third one.
