[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. First off, to the utter ass who implied that I’m stupid because I’m a preschool teacher, screw you. I went to UVA and have a masters in early childhood education. I taught preschool because it’s what I’ve always wanted to do since I was a little girl and I LOVED it. My husband and I decided equally that I would quit my job when my oldest was born because 1) it made sense financially and 2) it was the only job that meant more to me than being a teacher. I’m sorry if your job doesn’t bring you joy or you weren’t supported doing what you love but that was incredibly rude and uncalled for. Luckily you aren’t teaching young children because we certainly don’t need your name calling influencing them. Also, my youngest in currently in two morning a week preschool. I pick her up at noon. She has two more years of part time school before she starts kindergarten. So in addition to my concerns over what my salary would actually bring in, DH and I are both committed to me being home with her until she goes to school full time. I’m not saying that we can’t be flexible in that if we truly need to be, but when I have offered to look into work he has said he wants me home with her (not in a controlling alpha way, just that we both feel strongly on the importance of one parent home with the child if possible). [/quote] OK now I'm curious and I do think this is relevant - what's your backstory? How did you meet, at what points in education/career, etc?[/quote]
