I Have An Ivy-League Degree And I Plan On Staying Home With My Kids. Here's Why.
I’ve often been told being “just” a stay-at-home mom in the early years is a waste of my potential. But I’d argue that it's precisely the fact that I'm well-educated and intelligent that I should be entrusted to raise successful children.
Having graduated from a top university and accomplished quite a bit as both a student and young professional, conversations about relationships, family, and future careers are constant. As an intelligent, capable, and ambitious young woman, I’ve often faced a constant dilemma shared among other successful women: what happens if and when we choose to get married and have a family? What about our careers? Our career isn’t necessarily just a paycheck or financial security, it's part of our identity and ideally a field we sincerely enjoy working in.
