Passage 22 – Managing job and family is not simple. Both commitments make strong demands on people and are sometimes in direct opposition to each other. Saying yes to one means saying no to the other, and stress can often result. Being realistic and creating a balance in life can help set priorities.
The main idea of the paragraph is that
a. most family responsibilities cause stress at home and at work.
b. because it pays the bills, a job must take priority over other commitments.
c. it is important to have a balance between job and family responsibilities.
d. because they are so important, family duties must take priority over the job.
