You are a mother of three?? What are you thinking? Rarely do I directly tell people they shouldn't do something but to be a mother of small children and pursuing a flying career is flat irresponsible and wrong!

We all make choices in life. With each one others are crossed off as opportunity costs. You left behind the right to be able to have a flying career years ago. Even fathers of young children should not consider starting a flying career. It is irresponsible at best and outright family abandonment at worst.

I don't know you or what your actual job is. Perhaps you are a dispatcher, however for your families sake I pray that you are not a pilot. Sometimes I think people take on aviation as a passive aggressive way to shed unwanted friends, spouses and family.

All of us need to be Mom's and Dad's first of all!
