I’m giving this up because 1) getting a job is not all that essential for me (I am beyond lucky for this) and 2) I really want to keep myself open. I want to do something I like which may or may not end up being a job. Someday I certainly want to have kids, and I enjoy being around kids, but there are many other great possibilities for me. Maybe I’ll get a job in child care, but it’s not going to be my goal
