But that's a work-rest balance, no? Parents often need to 'take a break from the kids' and 'get out of the house' . . . that's a necessary balancing but not a work/life balance. I'm not opposed to balancing, I just think the necessity of alternation doesn't equate to 'work/life balance'. Does it?
- RUG3Y 9y agoI feel like you're splitting hairs. If it's just a matter of terminology, what is there for us to discuss? I know that sounds blunt but I don't intend it to be rude. I feel like you can call it a work/rest balance if you want, but then you're categorizing a great many things that fall outside of "work" as "rest", while I might lump those things in with "life".
