[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you do your job right, your children will become independent and leave you when they become adults. How would you feel fulfilled outside of that window? My kids are top priority, but my identity and value encompasses much more than mother.[/quote] +1 As I rapidly approach being an empty nester, I'm grateful that I continued to invest in my career, my hobbies, and my friends while raising my kids. If I'm lucky, I have another 30-40 years of life ahead of me after "active parenting." If you convince yourself that nothing else matters beyond your kids, those years will be very very difficult.[/quote]
