[quote=Anonymous]Law firm partner mom here. GET THE PARTNERSHIP!! Any job hunting you do from here on out will be vastly improved by being able to say you were a partner and hurt by leaving when you were not a partner. If they want to make you a partner, let them. Do not feel guilt about taking it, even if you think now that you will not stay that long. As others have said, your colleagues (and all men) would not feel that guilt and you should not let that affect your decision at all. Also agree with others that if there is anything you can do in terms of staffing to make time for work plus kids, do it to the max for these tough years. You should use your $$ so that you never miss time with your kids doing laundry or grocery shopping or whatever chores you don't want to do. If you still want to leave later, do it but from a position of strength not weakness. Good luck.[/quote]
