男的(老婆生孩子)还是女的?

最郁闷的还是被比自己小好几岁的“前辈”呼来喝去

没什么关系吧...我们这里的NEW ASSOCIATE 还有五十多的呢...有的PARTNER才三十出头

Make your wife stay-home mom, she is going to take good care of herself and your babe.

stay home mom, 她也不年轻, 还有Ph.D, 叫她stay home and give up career, hum, very hard decision.

We are exactly at the same age.

Can't afford a kid so far

let me tell you in 3 or 4 years. Seriously, most of the Chinese lawyers or lawyers-to-be I happen to know are about that age range and the majority of them have kids too. Maybe it is a biased observation, but it seems to be perfectly possible.

Is that possible having either of your parents taking care of the baby? It would be the best choice in case neither of you intend to give up your career.

Being a junior associate is certainly something tough. There is a lot to learn and experience. However, you should feel proud of yourself that you eventually make your own way into a professional.

Btw, mind me asking what your practice is?

One good thing about being a BigLAW attorney is that you can AFFORD hiring people taking care of your kids.

One bad thing about being a BIGLAW attorney is that you may have less time with your kid coz you can afford hiring a babysitter. -----No Offense. Just 4 fun. lol~~~

if you work outside of NYC, chances are the firm will give you flexible hours. Kids go to bed at 9pm anyway
