The first thing would be to stop feeling guilty about not being able to spend too much time with your kids. Remember, the quality time spent together is always more important than quantity time.

首先，不要因为不能经常陪在孩子身边而心生愧疚，要知道，最重要的不是你在孩子身边陪伴了多长时间，而是你们在一起的时候都做了什么。

 

 

Never ever resort to using money or gifts, as a compensation for your absence. It will not only spoil the children, but also make them lose the importance of money in life.

不能陪伴孩子的时候，永远不要用金钱或者礼物作为补偿。这不仅仅是溺爱不溺爱的问题，还会让孩子失去对金钱的重要性的认知。

 

 

Having a helping hand is always a good idea. However, make sure that the domestic help you are hiring is dependable.

请人帮忙也是个好方法，只是要确定你找来的人很可靠。

 

 

Learn the art of time management. They will go a long way in maintaining the balance between office and home.

学会时间管理的艺术，这对你平衡工作和家庭会大有帮助。

 

 

Find small little ways of connecting with your child, like call him/her daily from office, go for a little walk after dinner to discuss how was his/her day, and so on.

找到和孩子相处的小窍门，比如可以从办公室每天给孩子打个电话，或者晚饭后一起散散步，问问孩子这一天过的怎么样之类的。

 

 

Make it a point that ever week, you dedicate at least one day for your children. For instance, plan your Sunday in such a way that while in the morning you spend time with your family doing household chore, in the evening all of you move out for a family dinner or a family outing.

确保每周至少有一天是完全奉献给孩子的，比如，星期天的时候可以白天和家人一起做家务，晚上就全家人一起吃顿饭或者一起出门什么的。

 

 

Do not forget to spend some time on yourself. It is very important for you to be in a good shape, in order to fulfill your responsibilities.

别忘了给自己留点时间。对女人来说，保持一个良好的状态是很重要的，就算是为了家人幸福也得对自己好点儿。
