I'm at a point in my life where I either have one more child or a career I am partially trained/qualified in. I have always wanted to teach and know I would love it. However, without meaning to sound judgemental or goady, I can't get over the fact that it'd mean never taking my children to school, never collecting them, missing nativities etc. I've been a SAHM for 9 years and love it and part of me would love another child but they would be number four and we then wouldn't be able to afford for me to train to teach.
If I taught I'd drop my DC off at various childcare providers/schools at 7.30 and not see them again until 5.30. I just can't imagine it and feel guilty for even considering a career when we can afford for me to be a SAHM. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? Aibu to not know how to get over this feeling?
