Thinking about having a kid to solve your issues is the wrong way to approach parenthood. Ideally you should have already worked on yourself to be better equipped to raise a child...

How about starting with therapy, or finding a hobby that you can really immerse yourself in.

Definitely take a trip. Don’t have the kid. Not fair to the kid to put that pressure on them to fix all of YOUR problems.

Have the alcohol, and it will give you the answer on the other two.

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
