I'm married with kids and yes, my wife works (she could never sit home) and I have to say I am pretty happy as a pilot. Yes of course I could always gripe about the pay and some of the other things even the happy guys take issue with, but seriously its like a self fullfilling prophecy that the more you are negative and a downer, the more the universe will continue to keep you down. I know, I used to be that way BIGTIME and it was a drag. I just shifted my thinking and it made all the difference. It takes much less effort to think positive for me. Take this for what its worth.
