Staying in academia is a decent idea (I'm not sure if this is different in Europe vs the US). Lots of parents I know at my kid's school work part time for universities due to the same requirements around schedule flexibility.
Working as a freelancer is a decent idea as well, due to the autonomy you'll retain, but the amount of time you'll spend on the business aspects of it could be substantial.
- nalenth 4y agoI'd like to avoid staying in academia because I'm somewhat dyslexic and am very slow with reading and writing long form texts. Freelancing sounds like a good option, but I fear that the extra time spend on business aspects will not leave me with much time for the actual work.
