[quote=Anonymous]Why is everyone mad at OP for not wanting to move to those midwestern cities? They sound terrible to me too! (I’m Asian) Also, I know next to nothing about BigLaw, but it sounds like you do need to plan your exit, OP. If you were the workaholic type then it would make sense to stay and hire extra childcare, but it sounds like you miss your baby, so you need to find a more flexible job. So what if you pay your loan back in 2-3 years instead of 1? Long term, it won’t make much of a financial difference, but your quality of life will improve dramatically. There were a few months during DD’s first year where I wasn’t around much due to work, and I still feel twinges of guilt. Like you, my family is my first priority, not some brass ring.[/quote]
