Why there is no decent part time jobs for ladies here in Qatar or in Arbaic world ?I mean a job that helps mothers to develop their career and at the same time take care of thier families?

It is really a problem as I have a daughter who will join the school soon which means that she will leave school to home at about 1 o'clock

and my working hours is from 7 am to 4 pm and Iam working on saturdays .... so I have two options: first, bring a maid from a different country, language and religion to stay with my daughter.

second option is to leave my job which I like and destry my career for ever

and I hate these two options

if we have a decent part time jobs that will be the third nice option

egy_egy - Your statement; "in Arab world they always say that they are respect families more than the western world" is a stupid myth and just foolish brainwashing by the Arab world.

Perhaps the reason there are no part-time jobs for you is because the men don't WANT you to work. They control everything else you do, why not this?

Job market follows demand and supply. The supply in this part of the world is unlimited. Why you offer a part time job when you can get a full time worker for the same low pay?

Please recognize that when you move to another country, things will be different, and you have to accept it.
