[quote=Anonymous]Nice, happy ending, op! I'll say that big law and parenting young kids is a shitty combination. There's little allowance for family needs and caretaking. I know my parents took a slower route in their professional lives when we kids were growing up. Turns out my mom had the more ambitious career drive in her 50s and 60s, so when we were grown up, she went into full throttle and loved it. It was the right time for her--kids grown up, no grandkids, a lot of experience and wisdom to do it well. The lifetime of networking didn't hurt, either. She partnered with another woman of similar circumstances and kicked some serious pre- retirement ass for two decades before slowing down again. Mentored other rising professional women, too--sensitive to their competing family obligations and desires. Consider the long term vision. This could be you, too? You might have it in you. :)[/quote]
