[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're getting that close in age to your MB, it's time to find a new profession. Nannying is for college kids or girls in their early 20's while they figure out what they really want to do. I know some will be defensive about this, but I really think it should just be taken as a wake up call. [/quote]

It has nothing to do with my position, if anything my position is a wonderful way to make money while also having children. I just haven't met the right person to start a family with. I'm also paid enough to own a condo alone and have no debt. I want to spend all my time with my future children without completely depending on my husband to support me.  This isn't about growing up and choosing a job that is socially acceptable to someone else. I have a nice quality of life which is way more important than having what the smiths think I should have.

Your post makes no sense. You're banking on something that may never happen - like so many nannies. It's important to have a realistic back up plan that enables you to take care of yourself. [/quote]

I'm confused on how you came to the conclusion that I envy my employers lifestyle and assume I can't take care of myself? I enjoy my job and chose it over teaching and being a social worker because of the quality of life I wanted and the intimate relationships I built. I also make more than most social workers who have been in the field for 10 years. I am completely independent and financially stable enough to have a child on my own. It's called good money management and making wise investments. However, I want the traditional family like my employers have and that is something I can't control or plan for. They were lucky enough to find each other at a young age. I think I'm doing pretty damn great for a 27year old. [/quote]
