It's important for me to have a good work-life balance. I want to balance my family time with my career.
True.  Working too hard can be stressful and lead to health problems.
Agreed. The term "work-life balance" was first used in the United States in 1986.
Although I wonder how much impact any individual can have over work-life balance.  It's not like people decide their own hours in your average job.
That's a good point. According to a 2010 National Health Interview Survey, 16% of U.S. workers reported difficulty balancing work and family.
For business CEOs to prattle about "family values" and then work the parents to the bone to maximize profits, and then blame the workers for not having good "work-life balance," that's kind of awful don't you think?
Yeah, I agree. Ideally there would be more emphasis on employee welfare and less on maximizing profits.
That's a goal we can all benefit from, not just workers.
