Stay-at-home dad thrilled with new job, responsibilities
WESLEY KONRAD has traded his computer chips for baby crackers, his out-of-town trips for jaunts to the museum, interrupting his technical career for a stint as a stay-at-home dad while his wife Helen brings home the bacon. "I've cleaned up after breakfast and managed to have a shower, so it's been a good day," he jokes, showing that in a very short time he has come to appreciate that the care of two active pre-schoolers can be as all-consuming as tracking problems in a vast computer network.
He's part of a trend that has been quietly growing for the last generation.
Today, 12 of every 100 single-earner families in Canada has a stay-home dad, compared to only two in 1976, according to Statistics Canada.
While economic necessity has eroded the number of families with stay-at-home mothers as women enter the workforce to bring home a second paycheque, says Statistics Canada, the good news is that many are earning better wages.
Telecommuting may hurt careers
Employees who frequently work from home may be hurting their chances to advance their careers, a survey by Korn/Ferry International reported on Tuesday. So-called telecommuters are less likely to advance than peers who work in traditional office settings, according to 61% of the 1,300 global executives surveyed. That is despite some three-quarters of executives considering telecommuters to be as productive as their desk-bound colleagues, the survey found. Workers climbing the corporate ladder need "face time," said Robert McNabb, chief executive of Korn/Ferry's Futurestep division, which provides recruitment outsourcing services and conducted the survey.
"Corporate America (wants) people to make a commitment to live in corporate headquarters, to have face time with the board, to be in every planning and strategy session - not virtually, but in person," McNabb said.
Proud to be stay-at-home mother
I accepted the job position of stay-at-home parent, and I am rather intolerant of a group of people society seems to promote: the "working mom."
Put your briefcases down and read my disclaimer, ladies: I am not referring to anyone who has to work for money to make ends meet. I'm talking about those who don't understand that being a parent is a career.
