I'm sorry but I think if you are a professional woman and you have children, that is something you have chosen to do and you can't expect the institution to work around your needs. It has to be the other way around. I have worked with so many women who thought that because they had young families they were special cases , whilst their single colleagues had equally valid needs, did not have the benefits and choices that 2 salaries in 1 household give you and yet also needeed a little understanding at times - of course they / we got none.Welshcakes Limoncellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209759237794290941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-67147285478197888482007-10-02T01:09:00.000+02:002007-10-02T01:09:00.000+02:00It's funny how the gender of practitioners in vari...It's funny how the gender of practitioners in various professions is so different in various countries (grammar?). In Australia 50% of pharmacists were women and when I came to Canada only 15% were.<BR/>Funnily enough, recently, when I had to have a tooth extracted by my female dentist she said I'll get XXX, (her husband, with whom she practises) to do it, he's stronger than me. Both are Chinese and both small!<BR/>For a woman it does take longer to arrive at your goal when you have children however. My friend, a radiation oncologist, with 3 children took years longer to be a certified specialist than her husband because of time off. She also couldn't get a part time job when she wanted to go part time so the whole family moved to another province to enable that. regards<BR/>jmbjmbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563252743976699923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-58480564881672328132007-10-02T00:33:00.000+02:002007-10-02T00:33:00.000+02:00Hi, AA.
