Dating or raising a family while working from home

Couples that work from home should both be involved in child care, which means wives need to resist the temptation to be controlling around issues involving the children

What you need to know:

  • The hook-up culture via dating apps has also been replaced by a kinder approach in the move to video.
  • Working from home is also leading to big changes in women’s careers, as couples blend family responsibilities .

All around the world, more and more people are now working from home, at least a couple of days a week. They’re also conducting more of their social life online, and meeting more potential dates there.

Mostly, this new way of working grew out of the imposed curfews and lockdowns in the midst of Covid-19, but many of us have come to realise that we prefer this lifestyle, and are consciously choosing careers that make this possible. After all, we’re always connected anyway, and messaging and video has become the norm.
