[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP back and I want to steer this back on course. The response to many of these questions confirms my hypothesis. I like my job and have had some success here, but I also don’t want to have a child that resents me or thinks that I put a career before his happiness. [/quote] Have you considered moving out to a place like Burke or Chantilly where people don't get so crazy about politics?[/quote] The neighborhoods that have a higher concentration of military seem to have more reasonable folks with regards to politics. You might have chosen a place with a good DC commute, but if the neighbors are horrid and cruel to your kids, a job change won't help that. [/quote] That’s a good point however my child is in a local private. Due to where my office is, it would make for a rough commute to take my child into school then head down to the office. Unfortunately much of the meanness comes from school families since that is where most of his socializing occurs. It may be time to just pull him out and try something else. I really tied to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but maybe I was too forgiving. [/quote]
