[quote=Anonymous]It was a financial + personal decision. -I need to keep working to provide for my family. -I also worked damn hard to get where I am professionally and want to continue contributing to my field. I did downshift to part-time for two years after my son was born, and TBH, I'd love to work PT forever, but I'm the family breadwinner so it's not really a viable long-term option. Those two years really killed us financially, even though I am glad I made that decision. The sacrifice I've made is to move into a "mommy track" job so that I can earn enough for our needs, a little extra for our wants, and be home nearly every afternoon with my kid. [/quote]
