I had a quick look John. There were some women lawyers making a case, plus others saying about flexible working arrangements helping to balance a family life.
I guess at the extremes you need to spend so much time on something, and children being quite a commitment if you're trying to balance the two... that "having it all" is not humanly possible.
Talking about the rest of us tho... career breaks, changing careers, fast tracked progress through the ranks seems quite normal anyway for most people in most jobs. And childcare isn't without it's skills very valuable to employment prospects.
That's the imbalance that's being addressed IMHO.
