Being an occupational therapist... is it a job that you could also start and raise a family? or does the job take up too much time where it wouldn't be possible?

  1. It's always difficult raising kids and working outside the home, but I did it with three boys and millions of women are doing it. I don't see why OT would take any more time than other occupations. It takes organization, energy and setting priorities to do this.


  2. Well if you do not have children, they are alot of work.  If your not sure then start out trying to train a dog or cat and see how that goes.  If you are away form home alot then you will need backups to help with a child.  Who will help you?  Who will take care of them if they are sick.  Even if you have day care,  They will not keep them if they are running a fever(much less school).  There are alot of things to think about and answer.  The main thing is when you spend time with them or anyone, make it quality time.  Good Luck.  God Bless

  3. It wouldn't be any harder then most any other "job".  I mean you would have set appointments during the day and go home at the end of the day like most people.

  4. If you want kids and you have them then yes it is possible.

    If you dont want kids and you have them and you want to make the best of it yes it is possible.

    If you dont want them and you do and dont want to make an effort no its to much.

  5. YES you can! It is hard but possible

  6. I believe only you can make that decision and it would depend on the dedication you a ready to make.  My husband and I make very average salaries and you can never be ready, but we went for it and I love being a mother.  Good luck.  

  7. yes.... you will know if your family is missing out.  cant you work part time to be home more and  make money.

  8. My theory is if you wait until the "right time" to have kids it never will happen there will always be a reason you can't. Just let it happen natural things always have always of working out.
