[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I quit. It is extremely challenging to have children if you work in biglaw unless your spouse is the primary parent and you have significant support, hopefully grandparents who live close by and want to take active role or your spouse does not work at all. I had a supportive firm that wanted me to stay, partners who were willing to make concessions for me, and I enjoyed my work. But, ultimately, I couldn’t figure it out, even with 2 nannies. My kids were really getting shortchanged and my life was totally out of my control. Good luck. I have seen women do it well with small children. But they all have the combination described above. You need to have the home responsibilities of a man from the 1960s. [/quote] This. You need to think long and hard as to whether you can handle thinking that your kids are being shortchanged (whether or not they actually are). [/quote]
