Boys r us replied: I would be own a ritzy restaurant on a beautiful, exotic island!

TANNER'S MOM replied: A vet. Large animal and maybe dogs.

And I would have my own ranch and have the a working area, pens etc all out my door. Stalls with camera's for my horses..nursey monitors and all...

Kaitlin'smom replied: yes I would change it, I have a few thing I would love to be doing mostly something in the theatre or movies (not acting) I love working at the theatre here locally but they just dont pay much so I do that for fun, I have done everyting to PA (production Assistant), crew, wardrobe, dresser sets, hair, and even a spot of acting (hehe no lines) I so love being behind the light.

or I would love to be on the road with one of my favoirte bands, just helping getting the show ready and such.

but more realistcally I would like to be a nurse or paralegal, I might look in to studing one so when my agent retires I can start a new fresh career


PS where was this when I was starting college? I coudl not decide so i never finished, did not wan to waste time or money

mammag replied:

Hey...at least you started! I couldn't figure it out and was waiting to start until I knew what I wanted to do. I didn't figure it out before getting pregnant and kind of landed into the insurance business but didn't really like it so I quit when Kristen was 6mos or so.

Mine would be something in music. If I had the confidence I'd love to sing on stage but I know I'd just freeze up there. I would like to be an agent or talent scout as well.

My low key thing would be to be a Real Estate agent which would be doable so I don't really know what's stopping me except my 101 excuses I've made up for myself.

Kaitlin'smom replied: ya I did but I did not take but one class I figured I woudl start back when I knew what I wanted to go for well that never happend until now and i am 8 yrs into my current career, but I am startign to get board and not liking it as much as I used to somedays I just sit at my desk and not want to work unless I have to, I hate those days since I feel like I am wasiting my time when I have things I coudl /shoud be doing to increase business and earn more money.

Speaking of which time to get back to work

amymom replied: A teacher! I would love to teach.

Des replied: if i had it all to do over again, i would be a grade 2 teacher!

redchief replied: Always wanted to be a teacher.

gr33n3y3z replied: Should have stayed with graphic arts

My2Beauties replied: I would seriously love to get into the real estate business and or be a loan officer, I'm talking realisitcally here! I mean everyone can say they want to be a model, and I would love to be one or an actress but realistically I seriously want to pursue real estate. When I am more financially established (in a few years hopefully ) I want to buy houses, fix them up and sell them! I would love being my own boss and I would love to fix the houses up!

mckayleesmom replied: I want to work at Disneyland...where its always happy

coasterqueen replied: Hmm, what would I be? Let's see.....

Well first and foremost I would LOVE to be a SAHM til at least my kids are in school. Heck I'd love to be a SAHM and homeschool them, but I know that will never happen.

So I would either want to be (or all if I could ) a lactaction consultant, a NICU or maternity ward nurse, or a lawyer.

mckayleesmom replied: It would be nice to be one of those designers that gets to shop for the stars and buy all their clothes.....

MomToMany replied: I would LOVE to sew diapers for a living, SERIOUSLY! Or knit wool soakers and longies!

I'd love to open an actual store that carries all kinds of cloth diapers. But in reality, I'd fail because there are so few families that use them .

coasterqueen replied:
Mollie,

You should form an online business. I see them booming left and right! I know you wouldn't fail. An actual store would be great too. I'm sure it would just have to be in the right location, that's all.

mom21kid2dogs replied: Adoption work has been my passion for 22 years but if I could be anything, I'd be an astronaut! I only dream of seeing the earth from space~how cool must that be?

mckayleesmom replied: Can I be Oprah??

MomToMany replied:
That's a great idea too. I would like to talk to customers face-to-face and all that stuff, if know what I mean. Just to meet other CDing families would be a real treat!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I actually LOVE what I do. I love being able to SAH with my children everyday. My options are still open at this point. When both kids are in school I will go back to school and take some photography courses and pursue a career in photography. I won't have a studio and I will be able to set my own hours. When my children are home I will still be here for them and while they are away, I will play!

That is my dream and I think it is pretty reasonable.

Sunflower04 replied: I would love to be an Interior Designer... Maybe next lifetime.

MomToJade&Jordan replied: Oh I would be singing somewhere. Either on broadway or in sold out arenas. Singing is my passion.

I also wish I had the inclination for design. I would love to be one of those designers you see on TLC. That would be really cool.

I am very happy though just to be a SAHM. At least for now.

5littleladies replied: I love being home with my girls and I wouldn't trade it for anything, but if I did work outside the home I would want to be an ob nurse. There is nothing in this world like a newborn baby. I don't think I could ever get tired of being around them.

A&A'smommy replied: I'm a SAHM and I have never been to college but when I do go I'm thinking about either being a bridal consultant or I don't something interesting I guess...

kimberley replied: a midwife or a teacher but i do love my current job of mother and wife too

loveydad replied: Id be a neonatal nurse. So would hen actaulyl. Ever since I lost Roxy and Juliana I've been interested. I want to change things.

Oh and I'd love to open my own daycare- the best daycare on earth. I mean just a HUGE place.

and I'd like to open a newborn/preemie hospital . a realyl kickbutt one.!

MommyToAshley replied:
I totally agree! Mollie, you have such a talent... I think you should go for it and open an online store! I know it would be a success as well!

MommyToAshley replied:
Karen, you are so knowledgeable and passionate about all of those, I think you would be awesome at any of them! Except, you are too nice and honest to be a lawyer! (No offense to any lawyers here )

MommyToAshley replied:
LOL! I wouldn't want to be a talk show host, but I would love to be able to do some of the things that Oprah can do just because she is Oprah. For example, the Africa trip... I don't thin you can put into words how she changed the lives of those children. What an amazing feeling it would be to be able to make a difference like that!

MommyToAshley replied: All through college, I never knew what I wanted to be, and I changed my major many times. I actually started out as a finance and economic major. I've had some pretty major career changes as well. But, a little over two years ago, I discovered what I was searching for... I was meant to be a Mommy. I would love to just stay home with Ashley and not have to worry about the business at all. When Ashley is older, I wouldn't mind doing something with children... maybe teaching the younger kids. I love to watch Ashley learn and grow, and it would be a dream to do that with other children. But, for now, this business allows me to be home with Ashley and spend extra time with her.

kit_kats_mom replied: a gold digger.

Ok, just kidding. LOL
I would like to be a debt free SAHM and not have to worry about working at all. I'd be a much better mom if I didn't have to worry about work piling up on me.

coasterqueen replied:
You don't know me that well Dee Dee I can be very very mean when I want to. Everyone I know IRL tells me I'd be a great lawyer because I never give up a debate (except on here ) and won't ever back down.

iluvmysweetiepies replied:
I would like to be a neonatal nurse too. After being in the NICU so much with the twins, it made me realize I would love being a neonatal nurse! Opening a day-care would be fun too. I just love being around kids. Anything having to do with babies or kids would be great in my book.

MommyToAshley replied:
heehehe, Ok, I can see the lawyer in you. But, I can still see you being a lactation consultant over a lawyer.

Sunflower04 replied:

moped replied: I would be a bartender like tom cuise in Cocktail....................

JessC replied: I would love to have a show like dr phils. So I can tell people what I think about them.



BUT I really want to be a lawyer! I am very good at picking fights.

Or be my own boss somehow.
