I don’t really feel comfortable with this new idea of telecommuting. I wish I
could come to the office every day I have done for the past 5 years.
My name is Amanda. I am a hairdresser. I work in a beauty shop in the north of
the city. I am a single mother and have two beautiful sons. Mike is nine and
Steve is two. While I work, my mother takes care of my sons. She has always
supported me. But now my mom is really sick. The doctor recommended her
moving to a quieter place. So, she is moving in with my brother who lives in a
small town. If my mother moves, I will probably have to quit my job as I don’t
have anybody to take care of my kids. I wouldn’t leave them with a stranger,
especially the little one.

some advice from my point of view, about what you are going through.
One of the tips that I can suggest is that you start your business safely, since you have too
much experience in the beauty sector. In the same way, you can also try to have your
business in the town where your mother is going to live and have time for the three of
them, taking care of your mother and your children, as a last option and / or suggestion
that I give you and do the The effort of being an employee of a beauty salon is to go to live
in town with your mother and look for work in the sector.
With love,
Alejandro Acevedo
