[quote=Anonymous]In my case, dysfunctional, fragile, unsafe family. I wanted to become as independent and self-sufficient as possible. Made me incredibly motivated. Now, that's my truth. From their point of view, my parents believe my successes are signs they were terrific parents. Oh -- and once I married a good man and had children, and settled into a healthy nuclear family for the first time in my life, that career ambition really went away. Again, that's my truth. Outsiders who don't know my story assume I couldn't keep up and so had to choose mommy track, or lost direction. Nope. [/quote]
