[quote=Anonymous]Went from a community college to UCLA to Harvard Law School by working my tail off, both in school and to supplement school. Then went into Big Law. Always had my eye on a consulting job--my dream job. Finally broke in. Loved it. Took me 11 years to get there from that community college. Thought I'd do it forever. Never thought I would marry or have kids. Got married. He wanted kids. Finally I said ok just one. Long story short, realized that in our situation it was better for me to be a SAHM. Deciding to become a SAHM was the biggest curve ball I have ever thrown. OP, as hard as it was to get where you are, the even harder part is deciding to move away from it. Don't let yourself be chained to that cage that you guilded yourself! Yes it's a sunk cost, but life is short and we only live once. It's very hard to see other opportunities when you've got only one vantage point. But they are out there. Good luck, OP![/quote]
