Not Enough Time To Enjoy Life, or NETTEL, refers to the rising pool of households headed by two high-income-earning, full-time1-working parents with dependent children.
NETTEL（Not Enough Time To Enjoy Life，无暇享受生活，简称奈特尔）指夫妻为高收入全职职员、家里又有孩子需要照顾的家庭。
Here are two parents working full-time earning lots of money but struggling to balance the commitments that come with a demanding job and an even more demanding family life. In many families it's a case of got enough money but hasnt got enough time to enjoy life. These stressed-out Nettel parents are forever scheduling, scheming and diarising about how to execute the next day's events.
如此的家庭中，爸爸妈妈全职工作，收入也不少，但没办法同时兼顾工作职责和家庭生活。不少家庭都是有钱却没时间享受生活。这类重压重重的奈特尔（NETTEL）爸爸妈妈永远都在排日程、列计划，记录着要如何完成第二天的事务。
And, by some bizarre twist of logic2, many of these parents seem to revel3 in the scheduling frenzy4. In a materialistic5 go-getter world, a couple's ability to juggle6 and to control life's commercial and familial demands merely confirms their superior alpha status.
而且，基于某种奇怪的逻辑，这类爸爸妈妈好像非常享受这种日程堆积的状况。由于在崇尚物质第一的世界里，一对夫妇调节和掌控财务及家庭需要的能力就可以证明他们超级强者的地位。
