[quote=Anonymous]I am not caught up on this thread, so apologies of advanced degrees have already been discussed. I had a baby at 35. First, I earned a PhD and then was able to gain a foothold in a rewarding career. Until academia (and American culture, more broadly) can support young families with material resources such as affordable childcare and flexible fellowships, then having a child at a young age forecloses the possibility of higher degrees in many fields. I don't regret any of my own decisions, but would love to see more opportunities for other women. [/quote]
