Any moms out there? Finding it really tough to work in consulting and be with my kid for only a few hours a day. Luckily I'm local, but not sure how long that will last.

My spouse and I were planning on trying for our first (IUD officially removed!!) and a few months later I decided I also needed to change jobs. Ideally I wish I’d realized sooner - but now with two potential big changes on the horizon - should I stick it out in this job just to make it doable if I get pregnant? Or gamble on both huge life changes at once?

Just found out my mother has narcissistic personality disorder. I’m 30 and for the first time I feel like I’m seeing my whole life and childhood in full color. I always knew something was wrong and our family was very different but didn’t know why. Am starting therapy in a month.

Worst part is, I msg’d my sister in law (my brother’s wife) with this revelation and she told me my brother has been awful and emotionally attacking her (just like my mum does to me) (cont. in comments)

Just had a baby and considering buying a townhome near Prescott Elementary. We have been renting near burley/prescott and really like the neighboorhood. First time home buyer and new to the country (<5 years). A few questions (1) why does CPS get such a bad rap? (2) is it better budgeting private school expenses and factoring them into home purchase? (3) will our son stick out because we are colored and he's tiny, and are private schools safer bet from a bullying/inclusiveness standpoint?

Does anyone have experience stopping Child Benefit payments? What are the pros and cons?

My husband isn’t a great parent and he have a toddler. He means well but doesn’t know how to handle children . We have been thinking about a second child. Although I would love two children, I am not sure if I would be making a mistake since one child was certainly a lot to handle for us. I also don’t want to have my child miss out on having a sibling either.

My creative marketing agency, Codeword, is hiring account people! Senior Account Managers, an Account Director, and Account Managers.

Most of the roles are based in NYC but we also have offices in San Francisco and Salt Lake City.

One of my junior associates recently resigned and I've been trying to make an exit myself for several months now. The job market has been really competitive but I am getting closer to getting a new job and moving on. The firm culture isn't great and work-life balance is non existent. My physical and mental health have been suffering, so I really don't think I could stay. How did you avoid the guilt trips from Partners/Senior staff trying to get you to stay?

Still pretty new to tax and looking to see what the best options are out there.

How would a transition from industry to consulting look like for me? I am 2 years out of undergrad (T30) and have worked at a small consulting firm doing market strategy consulting for many of the major pharmaceutical companies since graduation. Long term, I see myself more in strategy/ management consulting due to the higher pay and earnings potential. I’m currently 25, how easily could I move into MBB, tier 2, or the big four consulting, and what would this transition look like?
