I enjoyed reading this article; though it was about staffing firms, it had some good points (that were a bit like, “THAT’S what I’ve been trying to SAY!”)

I’m very interested in this because I feel for all the experienced and intelligent mother’s (and father’s!) forced to struggle with the decision to work outside the home and see their children a couple of hours a day, when the possibilities of working from home should be more readily available and therefore no or only part-time childcare might be the only thing necessary to “get the best of both worlds”.

As I’ve voiced before, working from home while also the sole-caregiver of infant(s) and/or toddler(s) is quite a juggle and has bits of guilt all its own. However, if NOT working is NOT an option (and for most of us, it isn’t, am I right?) then home-based businesses, freelancing, or teleworking and telecommuting have got to continue expanding so as to include all kinds of workers and job categories.

If I have to become some sort of activist about this, then so help me, I will!:)

And I swear, if I am ever in the role of hiring and/or making executive decisions about this type of thing for my own or any other company, I will be homeshoring all over the place, lol!
