Screw that career over brats anyday

Exactly! Nothing or Nobody is worth sacrificing your family. It could be that the job you wanted would probably not work for your family. Keep looking... God has good things in store for you. more

No. You did what you thought was right and later down the road when your kids talk about all the great times you had together you will forget about a... missed opportunity. Opportunities come and go. Your family is forever! more

Although the position and financial benefits attached to it might make you regret but your family especially your time with your kids no money can... quantify it. more

I don’t think you necessarily chose work-life balance “too early.” You made the best decision you could with the priorities you had at the... time.

Seeing someone else step into the role can definitely trigger regret, but that doesn’t mean your original choice was wrong. You protected time with your kids during a season of life you won’t get back.

The bigger question now is what you want going forward. Maybe your priorities have shifted, or maybe you’re ready for the next opportunity when it comes. One missed promotion doesn’t close the door on career growth.

Sometimes the right decision can still come with a little regret. more

Do not regret as you have taken the right decision. When you have children giving them comfortable life is also important for their future. My wife... have taken similar decision with mutual understanding. Our children are well placed now, happy and thank their mother for giving them guidance and support during their childhood.  more

It's about money, if the current position earns enough to give yr kids good life, then uve done right to give them more of your time. But if ur not... earning enough, then ur choice was wrong.! more

Family over everything. Everytime my Husband and I have prioritized our child over money, God has given him a promotion on his job (and of course, he... is a very hard worker). You will get a chance at another raise that will honor the schedule you have with your children. In six years, my child will be sixteen. I feel like I haven't had enough time. The time feels like it is flying by. Jobs and promotions will always come and go. Although your children will always be your children, you only get their childhood once. There are people wishing that they could stay home or actually have time to spend with their babies and you have that. Don't trade it for anything. You made the right decision. The only thing that makes you feel you didn't is the money aspect of the raise. More money will come. more

You made the right decision, your kids will always remember you being there for all of their events or not. Just ask any military, EMS, police... officer, or long haul truck driver.  more

Family work balance should not result in regret. It is meant to ensure that you have accumulated enough for your family for the future and at the same... time career progression needs to be sustainable  more

Unless you want to say that the promotion will make you sleep in the job without seeing your children.Everyone desires apromotion that comes with... abigger package and benefits that eventually goes to children.You took awrong decision ithink. more

Good chance, but if I could have had my kids in my life everyday I would be a different person. But I choose the streets, and music once apon a time... over God, myself, and my children. And I regretted it. Know this one thing The Heavenly Father can give up back what we think we lost. But it's more important to follow your heart and sacrifice your time more than you have to. Teach and learn from your children. And please teach them about a man called Jesus Christ of Nazareth.  more

Dud ir help you? Your kids will always be with you. When you chose to get a bigger job, the final benefits go to the kids. Wrong decision.

Great choice. One of the greatest sacrifice in life is to create time at all cost to impact the younger generation. What an investment of inestimate... value!  more

Choosing the wellbeing of your children is like choosing rubies over fake gold. And if you make your spending time with them worth it by raising them... properly, you will surely look back on this decision of yours with pride and fulfillment.
Never regret the position. It is only, but transient and temporal.
All the best.  more

No, you did what you thought was best, Your kids are important and deserve to spend time with you!
Its ok to feel upset, but don't let it make you... lose focus on your children. more
