The Toughest Decision

We are at tough times people. No doubt I did not have to tell you that. Women are not the only ones who I think this question should apply to. I know of plenty single fathers and was raised by one at a time. Married couples should think about this too. Is a career more important than quality time with children. I'm thinking about this because it is now 3AM and I am up looking for a new J-O-B. Food needs to be on the table, but I know I won't have much energy in the morning. At the same time, I'm trying to make money on the side with writing. Any opinions on this?
