^many socialites in many, many cities manage to have great family lives while maintaining a very busy social schedule. they spend time with their children every single day between taking them to school, spending time with them after school, doing activities with their children (ballet, soccer practice), and then only when their children begin to wind down for the night, leaving that family to go attend to their events. yes, many have help, but they get to spend more time with their children than many women who actually work for a living.
