[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got pregnant my junior year. I married my husband, had an amazing daughter and over the next five years I finished my degree, got a masters, and had two more kids. My husband and I worked hard to be good parents.  He graduated that year and worked a supported us while I finished me education.  After I got my masters I got a job and when my kids were old enough for school I began working full time and had a great career. Next year we will have been married 50 years. We have seven teenage/ college agre grandkids whom we adore.  When we married everyone thought it was a huge terrible mistake. [/quote]

50 years later, the world is a wildly different place. What sort of jobs exist these days for someone straight out of college that will not only allow them to support a family on a single income, but also have enough left over money to pay for a spouse to finish their undergrad degree and then pursue a master's? And then spouse can put off working full time until the kids go to school? Plus, good luck finding decent employment with a gap on your resume.[/quote]
