Should women sacrifice their career aspirations for the sake of their family?

Examine one’s heart. One’s life is spent making choices and sacrifices. Perhaps they hope you’ll focus more of your energy on the children. According to traditional Chinese concepts, men are supposed to handle external affairs while women take care of household matters, which indirectly puts some of today’s female heroes at a disadvantage! If you have time, talk to your husband and see what he thinks.

One should have their own aspirations; after all, having graduated from graduate school and putting in so much effort to study, it would be a shame to give up on that field. You can talk about it with your husband.

The original poster is the type of strong, independent woman. After all, it’s already great to have a capable husband, a stable job, a family, and children. I think family harmony is the most important thing. In my current position, can I try to achieve some results?

There’s no question of whether or not; it’s just a question of whether you want to If you’re willing, then everything’s fine; having peace and stability is happiness. If not, find ways to change things on your own – pursue what you desire. A family isn’t made up of just one person, and there’s no rule stating that someone must sacrifice themselves. The prerequisite is to figure out what is truly important. Kaichuan isn’t omnipotent; only you are. ;P

The question is, what about the child? Who will take care of it?

The poster is in her thirties; her husband is a bit older, around the same age. . . Can’t figure this out either? ? ? ? The logic is extremely simple: if the husband has room for advancement, then when both spouses work at the same institution, you won’t have any chance to advance. If you manage to rise to the positions of assistant dean or deputy dean, what will happen to the other people there? ? Where is their space? ? Whether it’s state-owned or private enterprises, wherever there are people, there is a competitive environment. The same is true in private companies as well; if a couple both work at the same company and manage to advance in their careers, it’s only possible if they run the business together, with one serving as chairman and the other as general manager. . . It’s even simpler: if you want to make progress in your career, you have to quit and seek opportunities elsewhere, in another company or organization. If you stay at the same company, you can only work hard without complaint, leaving room and opportunities for your husband to advance. You should understand that if you hold a mid-level position, people will start gossiping when your husband becomes deputy director. It’s easy to figure out what such gossip would be — \"One deputy director in the family is enough; what if there are two? Can people still live like this?\" ? ? ? Take care of the children, do your work well, be willing to work hard without complaint, and behave responsibly! ! If you’re not content to stay in your place, you’ll argue with your husband and suffer consequences; the more complaints you have, the more often your husband will argue with you! . . . . Be careful! ! Having too many ideas can lead to trouble. . . Looking around, it’s everywhere: the rules of society dictate that a man’s prospects can rise indefinitely, but not those of a woman. . . Your husband can understand you 49%, while expecting you to understand him 51% – get it? ?

What was said upstairs is straightforward and makes sense; it’s unfair to the original poster who is eager to make progress. There is little room for advancement for women in the workplace, and this may have nothing to do with your abilities. If you want to find a sense of purpose and satisfaction in your work, it’s better to change jobs. First, take care of family and children’s matters and get your husband’s support. You’re still young, so you can take risks

The view from the 7th floor is quite realistic. It is suggested that the original poster consider things from another perspective, such as the family, the education of the children, and whether your husband is not taking care of his parents as well as before. In that case, could you make up for that?

In any case, a woman should have a job that she likes. . . . . . . . .

Sometimes, it is necessary to make some compromises for the sake of the family. A woman can choose not to have a career, but she must be self-reliant – able to go on living with her children even without a man.
