[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP your post is really entitled.  You have ideal hours for kids, make $95k and work from home?? I can't imagine much better of a set up.  Many of us would kill for even 2 out of 3 of those things.  I get that sometimes the grass looks greener or we all think about the road not taken but honestly this is ridiculous.  Be thankful and realize what a luxury it is to be in your situation.  [/quote]
I don't see how it's entitled at all. She is musing, thinking of the road not taken and it's a very normal and common thing to do. It does no good to stay there for too long, but simply having these thoughts despite having a good situation currently doesn't make her entitled, it makes her human.[/quote]

It's walking the fine line of thinking out loud and complaining, and I'd like to think that OP is aware that this is worthy of the first world problem meme.

But we do all wonder about choices we've made - hell, I wish I had skipped grad school and sold my soul to wall street right out of college. I have family members who 'retired' to the slow lane with millions by their mid thirties. You can drive yourself crazy with the what ifs, OP, so indulge yourself for a little bit and then get on with your very nice life.[/quote]
