[quote=Anonymous]I did number 2 and had mixed feelings about it, but in retrospect have no regrets. By staying in the job I was at and working hard, I was able to get promoted after baby number 2 and now make more money and have more flexible hours. I think the bottom line for me is that I decided to stick at my job and see what happened, but at all times knew (and still know) that when the job stops working, so will I. I basically have let me employer know through my actions that they can take me or leave me, but that I am going to work from home a fair amount and would not be the high biller I used to be before kids. So far, my firm has stuck with me and even promoted me, so I now have a few more years to see whether this career will work out for me and my family. But I got here by taking it day by day and not jumping to conclusions or quitting because I was afraid I would fail or get fired. [/quote]
