Since one cannot ignore their work commitments in the long run. This causes a lot of conflict in anyone's mind. On one hand they are expected to be strictly professional and on the other one, they're supposed to be very emotionally available.

Being a parent requires you to be present in your child's life. At the same time,in our world every adult has their duty to perform which occupies their hours in a day. For these two statements to coexist we need to make a lot of accommodations in our own schedule.

More than that, we need to learn and understand about our own emotional reaction towards things. So that us being busy does not send the wrong message to the child. Lastly It is important for us to be compassionate towards ourselves, since juggling through all of this has to be overwhelming.
