Working Mother guilt

I enjoy watching this american sitcom " Desperate Housewife " showing on TV every monday 10pm. This week there was a scene where Lyn rushed home from work hoping to catch some time with her fav son before he turned in. She was diasppointed when saw her son had slept. She tried to make up by forcing the son to wake up earlier next day to bring him out for breakfast before school... Whatever it is I can understand how a working mother feel. We are always hoping to achieve a balance in work and family. We will feel guilty for cases like this. However this seldom happen on working father. I dont see my children's father feeling guilty when he cant make it home to spend the evening with them or even tell them bedtime stories.

For whomever like this sitcom, you may wish to try out Which Desperate Housewife are You?
My result : I am Bree. Though Im not as perfectionist as her but I like her perfection. I like Lyn for her capable and chivalrous. I like Gabrie drive. She knows what she wants and want it when she wants it.

yah loh... I guess we just hv to learn to accept the differences btw man and woman, after all, men are from mars and women are from venus. We get overwhelmed over our children every little achievements or milestones whereas the father only, oh yah? really? the most wow. There are just not so sentimental.
But im not stereotyping, i still see very affectionate FATHER, so envy the wife... All thumbs up for this father !!!
