A. Hello my dear parent! Mom, guilt always exist, irrespective of which generation you belong to. This is something which is ingrained in the women’s psych that you are doing injustice to your child. If you’re away doing a job or doing your own personal work, but at the end of the day, you are also a human. With the pros and cons of you to work or not to work, which one has a need and which one is the want. if you’re feeling too guilt about working and you might not be able to concentrate, then maybe you can extend your leave or postpone your joining for a couple of months. Still, somehow you need to take a call about what you really need to do. Just remember, nothing and no one can separate a mother and a child far away working for sometime. But at the end of the day, you will come home to your child.

Mom of a 9 m old girl

Q. Hi all, I have a ten month old daughter. I am a working mother. I was in my maternity leave and it ended when my daughter was six months old. But due to Corona, am working frm home, which is helping me to take care of my daughter while doing my work. I am a sub-editor in a business research company. At the month end, it becomes difficult to check on my daughter all the time. At my home, I have FIL, MIL, and husband. My in-laws are at a good condition. So, they can take care of her for a few hours, also we have 3 maids, including a cook. so, it's not much problem. But despite that, my MIL is continuously pressuring me to leave my job, and discouraging me by telling me scary stories about children whose mother worked. Also, she tried to make me feel guilty and tried to impose me as a selfish mother as I a. working. My SIL is also working in the army, but my MIL says she can't leave her job after baby as she is doing a government job, but as I am doing a private job, I can easily leave my job. If I don't, my baby will turn bad. Please suggest, what to do?
