Children
Is it possible to have both a family and a career? I want both. I already have a son and I want three to four more children. Most people think I'm crazy for wanting so many children, but that is just because they've had a hard time raising theirs. I have had such a pleasant experience being a mother in the two and a half years that my son has been on this earth and I know that I want more kids. However, I also want to be a successful psychologist. That is going to take another six years of school. Where do babies fit into pursuing your dream? I don't know anyone who can answer that for me because i don't know anyone who has pursued their dream after having children. They all give up on it for one reason or another. Am I crazy for thinking it is even possible to have both? What am I going to do - have a baby every summer between school years? It will be especially hard to have a large family if my husband is still pursuing his career. How will it work? Many women just pop the kids out until they're tired of having them and go back to school to pursue their career once the kids are older - but the problem is that the mom is older, too! Nobody wants to be the old lady in class. Well, if anyone figures out the answer to this, let me know!!!
