Virginia, it is challenging (and frustrating) to coordinate family needs and work opportunities. I have a PhD in Chemistry. I did research for a few years, found I really didn't like it so I got certified to teach high school chemistry. I taught high school chemistry until my children were born then stayed home with them. I've been fortunate in the past years to have the opportunity to teach chemistry part time at the university. I never know if I have a job but at least it's nice when it happens.
