[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. I dont think you are being unreasonable atall, but you might want to just be a little more flexible. When I had my first, I never planned to go back into the office full time. But then, consultant for the company I worked for offered to hire me for 20 hours a week, then 40, and 12 years later I make my own schedule as long as I get the work done. I rely on my husbands benefits, but I bring in a really great amount of money. And I will tell you, the marriage isn't great 16 years in, and I am SO glad I never hit pause on my skills. If I were willing to go back into an office now that my kids are older and more self suffiicent, I believe I would be hired. The other thing to consider with a future spouse is just how expensive kids actually are. If you are making under a certain amount of money, you barely break even sending that child (or multiples) to daycare, hiring a nanny, etc. [/quote]
