[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP's problems arise from the fact that this is her second career but she wants pursue it like it's her first - to focus properly on coursework etc, just like other students. but, she is not like other students, she is several years (it seems like 5 or so) behind them. that introduces significant problems into her planning. the other problem is that she wants to have 3 kids in five year. that's basically five years of pregnancies, babies and toddlerhood all while pursuing a career that means so much to her. at 32 she doesn't feel ready to have a baby but in just a few years she thinks she will be ready for work, pregnancy, baby and toddler all happening at once. [/quote] Not Op but many people change professions all of time. Why are you focusing on criticizing her for it? When I was in my MBA program at 26, most of my peers were 30+. Was their age a reason to look down or criticize them? No! Everyone had their own walk of life. I applaud Op for leaving her last job to pursue her career. It's never too late. Start to learn to nicer. Mean women raise mean kids.[/quote] And what is it to you whether she wants to have 3 kids in 5 years? You can not be ready at 32 and be ready by 34 for kids. It's not unheard of. She is smart to get school out of the way. Some of you have a strong case of superiority complex. My cousin is a nurse. She is currently back in school to be a nursing instructor while raising 2 under 2 and a teenager. She is 36 and most of her peers are the same age. There are many people going back to school in grad programs or for an advanced degree that are 30+. The oldest in my MBA class was a 56 year old dad. Instead of judging, motivate others. It will get you father in life. [/quote]
