Our two speakers discuss fundamental decisions, every-day challenges, emotional burden and life satisfaction from a mothers’ and a fathers’ perspective in different life stages (i.e., with young children vs. teenagers) based on their experiences. They also point to unexpected life events and additional burdens faced by a “sandwich generation” between children and their own (advanced-age) parents. Altogether, despite recognizable costs their pathways can be seen as encouraging examples of finding personally suitable, highly fulfilling pathways in academia as a parent. More information here.
