There are two sides to every story, and this topic is no exception. The title of this episode is not meant to scare you, or make you feel guilty (parents have enough guilt)! But let's get real -- work is inevitable and it's something most of us have to do in order to survive and provide. Many parents spend hours upon hours at their jobs each week, so how does that come into play in the arena of parenting and your children's development? Nicole is trying to understand when (and under what conditions) can your job actually be a *good* thing and relate to *positive* developmental outcomes for your kiddos -- and under what conditions is it *not*. Researcher and Psychologist Maureen Perry-Jenkins has been studying this topic for 20+ years, and shares hers latest findings with Nicole in an engaging conversation parents of ALL ages should listen to.
