[quote=Anonymous]At 36 I switched careers and became a first grade teacher (through an alternative licensure program). I did this because I loved children, I had just broken up with my BF who wouldn't put a ring on it, and wasn't sure I'd have kids. I still wanted to be around children and have them in my life. Now, 10 years later, I'm still teaching, and still don't have my own kids. But I have no regrets. I'm just too tired to even mull over it. Children are a colossal responsibility. As a teacher, I've encountered many, many parents who are overwhelmed and intimidated by parenthood. I think many people enter into it without realizing the magnitude of it. As for me, I get to be around 22 wonderful sweet ones, but then go home to blessed peace. I can also be a great auntie, and I am.[/quote]
