Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Mai i waho, ko Anand Iyer te mea katoa. He wahine, he tamahine e rua tau te pakeke, me te mahi e ono-tau te utu ki tētahi kamupene hangarau matua i San Francisco e arohaina ana e ia. Engari ko te āhua nei ehara i te mea tino pai te whakakotahitanga moemoea. I whakarerea e te 36-tau te pakeke tana mahi hei tane-whare - a inaianei kaore e taea e ia te hari ake. I whakakiia e ia: I mahi a Anand Iyer mo te paetukutuku ahua Threadflip, engari i whakarere i tana mahi ki te noho i te wa i te kaainga. I a ia e korero ana ki Yahoo Parenting, ka mea ia: 'I timata ahau ki te uiui ki a au ano, "He aha taku e whakapau kaha ai? He aha te take e whai ana mātau kia nui te oranga o mātau, engari e kore e whai wā ki tō mātau tamaiti?"' I 'riro kino' ia i te kore e kite i tana kotiro iti a Ava, i kii a Iyer, a i kaha ki te huri i waenga i nga mahi a te kaimahi me te papa. I muri i tana mahi i Microsoft, ka neke ia ki Threadflip hei kaiwhakahaere matua hua. Ahakoa i kaha ia ki te tae atu ki reira, i mohio ia ehara pea i te whaainga e whaaia ana e ia. 'Kāore au i noho wā ki a ia i te ahiahi,' i kī a Iyer ki te pae. I kii ia ki a Yahoo, ko te papa takaro te mea kino rawa. 'He maha nga wa ka titiro ahau ki raro ki taku waea na te mea kaore au i te mohio me pehea te whakahoahoa i reira. 'Kāore au i te mōhio me aha au. Engari kei te haere haere au ki roto i taua porowhita. He mea e pā ana ki te noho tonu ki reira, ki taku whakaaro. Na, i te mea kua mahi ahau i tēnei i ētahi wā, ā, kei te mōhio au ki ngā tāngata o te rohe, kua pai ake.' Nō reira i te marama o Hānuere, ka tukuna e ia tana whakamōhio. I te taha o ngā penapena a Iyer, kei te tautoko tana wahine a Shreya, 34, i te whānau me tana mahi hei kaiwhakahaere kimi kaimahi i te kamupene tātari raraunga a Splunk. E whakaae ana a ia he raruraru i ētahi wā: 'Kua kore ahau e moe i ētahi wā i runga i ā mātau pūtea. Engari ko te mea pono, he waimarie ahau kua roa ahau e mahi ana i te wa roa, na reira kaore i tino uaua te whakawhiti mo matou i runga i te moni ka taea". Ko Iyer tētahi wāhanga o tētahi rōpū e tipu haere ana o ngā tāne e hurihuri ana i te whakatakotoranga matua tuku iho kia nui ake ai te wā e noho ana ki a rātau tamariki. E ai ki tētahi rangahau o nā tata nei a Pew Research, 46 ōrau o ngā pāpā e...
Ko Anand Iyer, 36, e whiwhi ana i ngā moni e ono ōrau i Threadflip i San Francisco. I mōhio a ia kāore i nui tana wā ki te kite i tana tamahine, 2, a Ava. I raru ia i te papa tākaro, ā, i te moe a Ava i a ia e hoki ana ki te kāinga. I whakarere i tana mahi hei tane-whare, e kii ana ko 'te haumi pai rawa atu' Ko tana wahine a Shreya, 34, kei te tautoko i te whānau hei kaiwhakahaere kaimahi.
