Hi everyone,
I don't have children yet but I'm planning on ttc in the next 2 or 3 years, once I have finished my degree :). I'm currently studying for a degree in education on a part-time basis and working full-time as a HLTA in a special school. I leave home at 7 30am and tend to get home between 6 and 6 30 in the evenings, teaching is brilliant with the holidays but I am concerned as to how it would be with a family as the hours can be long and there's a lot of work to be completed at home. I have the option to move into social work once my degree has finished which is something I am interested in and something I think I will get more fulfilment out of instead of teaching.. I'm just concerned that if I leave teaching and work in a job with 'normal' holidays I will not be around for any children I have in the future, I really don't want to be an absent mother. Any help or input from working mothers would be really appreciated! Thank you xx
