I do it because I am concerned about the effects of hormones on kids. Girls are starting to develop earlier and earlier and I think a lot of it is due to constant exposure to hormones. Also, I do not think there has been enough long term studies to decisively say there is no benefit.

The only way I make myself feel better is that I didn't know when I started at Stanford that I'd meet the love of my life soon after and almost die trying to have children through IVF after discovering that he had had cancer so couldn't conceive normally.Many procedures later, felt so blessed with my children didn't even care that my career fell by the wayside. Sometimes you can't predict and I'd say you can't not get these degrees hoping that your fairytale life with happen.

I don't understand if DH did his MBA part time at night why you still "feel poor." He had a job and was earning income to pay for school (assuming his company did not foot the bill). How does someone who earns $350K while going to school "feel poor?" Does not compute.

he may have had a hard time keeping it without the degree and you will probably work again an MBA sounds like a very silly regret and you should really withdraw the use of the word poor. Cancer sucks making 350k a year is wealthy.

That would be nice but I don't think just having a great b-school on resume will get me a 350k job. Plus we live in the suburbs now and dh and I don't want to both be so far from the kids and there are limited job options out here.
