Is there any advice for people who were unable to start their careers because of caregiving? I'm 29 and I've had to help take care of my mom since I graduated high school.
I wouldn't have been able to balance both school and work when I was in college and caregiving has taken up all my time in the past several years and as a result, I can't look for work even if I wanted to.
