[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the weirder cons our society has ever been duped into is buying into the idea that your career is what should define your life or that a woman’s “contribution to society” via grinding for some corporation is to be valued more highly than raising and rearing her own children and focusing her energy and efforts into nurturing the emotional and spiritual well being of her family. Baffling how backward it is to me that women fought for this.[/quote] We tried for 7 years to have our child. I went back to work for a little bit after my maternity leave. When my kid was 2, I decided that sitting in a cube pumping out spreadsheets as a financial analyst while I desperately missed my child wasn't a worthwhile tradeoff. Maybe some people have more interesting careers. My child is a teen now and I've never looked back. Our marriage is great and my financially we are doing better than I ever expected. DH is not a high earner, but we have a cozy house that is paid for and college is funded. [/quote]
