Career move or stay put for the kids?
Got offered a promotion that's basically my dream job but it would mean traveling 3-4 days a month and longer hours overall. My kids are 6 and 10. I've been watching them grow and I don't want to miss stuff but I also feel like I'm sacrificing my career for them. Did anyone else make this choice? No judgment either way I'm just trying to figure out what the right call is.
I'd take it if you can swing the logistics. The longer hours worry me more than the travel honestly, but if it's truly your dream you might regret passing it up way more than your kids will mind the schedule shift.
