Agreed. I once had a moment when Lucy was tiny and I, with sister-in-law & mother-in-law was making a Sunday roast at my house, husband & brother-in-law were putting up a shed & the kids were playing in the garden, when I thought, 'I'm having a tradlife moment & it's quite nice.'https://twitter.com/Intrinsic29/status/998928669518135296 …

I admit I will be disappointed if my daughter is completely fulfilled by domestic stuff tho I won't tell her she shouldn't be if she genuinely is. But if she's doing it because the only work options she sees are even less inspiring, I'd try to help her find something fulfilling

Doesn't matter how smart a person is or what their abilities are, there is usually something that is of interest. My cousin has a real eye for colour & style and does amazing things with her home & gets interior design magazines just to look at what other people do with theirs.

I'd love for her to do some kind of course on this and find a job where she could advise people on home decorating at whatever level. She'd love it. She loves doing it for her friends. This sort of thing.

Yeah, it's also often really difficult to make dramatic life changes, especially when a lot of people depend on you for stability.

Yes, of course. Many people stay in jobs they hate for this very reason & this is even harder to change if family reliant on the income. I don't think people should stay in domestic roles tho coz family used to it. As kids get older, they can help out.

When I went to Portland, that was the longest I'd ever been away from my daughter and she said that by the end, she was feeling sick with missing me. :( I'll still go away again but I'll find ways for us to Skype & watch things together at night & I'll get Gauri to be there more
