I love that the name of this article is The Truth About Balancing Children and Career. This is probably the farthest thing from reality that I have seen written about working women. One of authors isn't even a parent - she's a godparent! Can't they post articles by real women with real jobs?
Re: Is this anywhere close to the truth?
This is the same article posted below... I don't think there is much truth to this article and like you said, they aren't all parents! Do any of us have a second home in France?!?!?
I think one of the posts about it on the website was exactly correct: Life is hard, find a way that works for you, and don't worry about what other people think. The most important is that your kids know and feel you love them.
