“No matter how you look at it, work is always something that's going to rob you of time with your child.”
about how her struggle for work-life balance meant she put her career on the back burner while her kids were growing up. She had to choose to be a “homemaker” over America’s Sweetheart. At least for a long stretch.
"That raises the bar even more," she said, talking about how careful she was about taking roles when her kids were little. "Because then it's not only is this material good? It's also the math equation of my husband's work schedule and the kids' school schedule and summer vacation. It's not just, Oh, I think I want to do this."also made headlines in 2022 for basically retiring from her career in order to try and have a second child.
“Believe me, I never wanted to have to choose between tennis and a family,” the 23-time Grand Slam champion wrote in her announcement,. “I don’t think it’s fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn’t be writing this because I’d be out there playing and winning while my wife was doing the physical labor of expanding our family. Maybe I’d be more of a Tom Brady if I had that opportunity.”
She’s right. It’s not fair. It feels like 50 percent of the population of parents is struggling with finding any sort of balance, while the other half is not, or at least not to the same extent. It’s not that privilege doesn’t help, it absolutely does. It’s not that money doesn’t help, it most certainly does. It’s just that even when moms have every possible resource at their fingertips, they face more barriers on their way to work-life balance than dads do.It’s because parenting is still not seen as the full-time job it is.It’s because of sexism and misogyny.
