[quote=Anonymous]This post is ridiculous- being a parent is a choice, and so is your career, number of kids, geographic location. The quiz demonstrated how people start the race ahead due to what was given to them as kids. Your lament is that you don’t have some of the niceties of adulthood- but those are mostly the sum of your choices! How are you going to complain about not having family nearby when you are raising kids in another city? If you want family close by, you need to move near your family. If you want a bigger salary, you have to get a job that pays more. If you want mom friends you have to make friends. If you want to outsource, you have to think of some other line item on your budget to give up. Also I’ve literally never had the dilemma you are worried about. I’m thankful people serve on the pta etc and have never once felt bad about not doing it or looked askance at people who don’t. [/quote]
