56% of parents all around the globe claim that it’s often hard for them to manage life between work and family, especially parenting. We can agree that being a working parent is hard, but times have changed, and we have more and more work-from-home parents. Freelancing truly offers a new way of parenting, which is of huge importance for mothers.
Freelancing offers you to spend more time with children
39% of working mothers and 50% of working fathers have said that they don’t have the ability to spend more time with their kids. With freelancing and remote work, that definitely changes. It’s no secret that women still spend more time doing housework and taking care of the entire family, especially children.
Now, they can manage their own working hours in a way they want and like, while at the same time staying home and doing many tasks while freelancing, or when taking some work breaks. Parents don’t spend extra time by going to work and coming home, completing all those tasks outside the house after work, and taking care of the home after work – everything can be done during freelancing working hours – when they are already home.
Freelance parents make more money
Surveys have shown us that freelance parents also earn more money than they would with a traditional job. Sarah Duran has written that 62% of freelance workers claim that they earn more money this way than with their previous regular jobs. Money is important for every parent, so they can create a better life for their children.
Money and time are not the only things freelance parents get
It seems like how freelance parents also have a higher quality of life and are healthier. We can conclude that it’s important that parents don’t get completely tired when they come home from work. Freelancers’ energy isn’t dragged by traffic, noise, so many people around, and worry. Besides that, freelancers usually pursue their life goal careers, which means that they actually love their work.
