[quote=Anonymous]OP I am not trying to be weird or judgmental in my comment, just up front. But I think you're kind of setting the stage in these early days on what kind of parent you'll be. Will you be the choosing work over moments parent or the choosing moments over work parent. The more you do one or the other the more that trend will continue. OF COURSE there is a middle ground and I'm not saying your career isn't important at all. But you know, at the end of the day do you want to be the person who tried and did whatever they could to be there for as many moments as possible or the person who was always at work. The last day of a multi-day conference? What are you really giving up? You'll certainly be able to schmooze again. But you'll never get first day of K back, and your kid will never get you being their on their first day of k back. [/quote]
