Answered on 10th January 2008:

Absolutely! I always thought I would be climbing the corporate ladder, but all of that changed after having our daughter. I now work part time out of the home and swear I will never go back. However, some of those sentiments have to do with the fact that I was an older first-time mom, and had already clocked 25-plus years in the workforce. I see some of my friends without kids feeling the same way. However, I do think having a child gave me a real focus away from corporate, and one that I am still enjoying. If I was in my 20s or 30s, I don't think I would feel the same.
