[quote=Anonymous]Some people don't really want kids all that much, and they may feel like it sounds bad to say that. It can be really hard to have a good career and be a good mom. You always feel like you're half-assing things at one or both, unless you have an incredibly flexible job or a very, very good support system at home. Many folks don't have that. I had to back-burner my career big time when I had a kid as a single mom, and I really miss being more successful. But I don't see a way to be a good mom in the way I want to be, while also killing it at work. Something had to give.[/quote]
