Re: quit working for kids
It is a tough decision and if you work to show the world and are surrounded by people who you think are jealous of your success or whatever, I think you may have a tough time when you quit. This is just my opinion !!!
As I stated earlier, your location is Canada where I believe you can take a longer leave without quitting your job.
Take a longer leave and think it through.
I know a girl who also quit her job when her baby was born. She is very much into fashion and all and when she quit her job and after about a year’s break from work, she has gotten into designing jewellery from home and is now working with another designer, still staying at home.
If you have some other passion, that you can continue to work on from home, may be try that while taking break from work.
