Opportunity knocks should I take it? (34)
If you dont want to have kids >> DONT!!!
If you want to have kids? Do!!!
If you want to fark off on them >>> do!!
If it's just to earn $$$$$ to have them lead a better life? & think of being overseas to make extra $$$$$ while you miss out on their up bringing just for the sake of eating steak instead of noodles?
Going by this site(& others), whoevever has kids keep saying >>> my kids are my life, my kids come first,i want my kids to have what i never had,you must understand my kids come first, my kids are my life,
Why in the fark would you want to leave them just to make a buck? I really dont understand
I had a dog for 12-13yrs & left him only once in that time & he fretted 
I suppose kids are more tollerating (just curious) not bagging. Kids must do being without parents better than pets
(doubt it)
JMO,(which prob dont mean much)
If i was a kid again >>>(i heard that 
) I know i would not give a fark bout what $$$$ can buy 
.
I can sew, i can cook (sort of), i can work 33yrs in a row, i can pay a mortgage, i can serve 6 days on jury service (dunno how that happened)
I can hold a heavy vechile licence,i am a licenced security guard, i can hold a firearms licence, i earn $.... per fortnight .... ok heaps more yada yada yada 
I always thought that my parent/s taught me fark all
Man was i wrong 
I'm still alive & getting by
(excluding my missing them so much)(& me dog) 
JMO, if i was a kid again i would rather spend every min with you mum/dad coz you never know when POOOOOOF!!!! you are gone
I would hate to be sitting at the table eating steak just coz you wanted to better MY life, when i get the news you are gone, & will NEVER see you again just for the sake of wanting me to be a surgeon
rather than a truck driver 
I know you love me so much mum/dad, but i would rather you stay close to me & teach me things money can't buy, would rather you be close just in case i needed you
This was JMO

Lookin have to say you really are the King of the Emoticons!!
AgentAjax: About six months ago at the local I spent about 2 hours chatting to some Welsh dude about life in general. Few days later he came back and we chatted about books we read and just some left field philosophies. This dude takes a likening to me and I get invited couple of times to dinner with him and his missus. To cut the long story short, I fitted into his environment of thinking and in the last few weeks get to meet some of his co-workers. Tonight I get invited to early dinner as per usual, except there is another 4 people there which I met before. Almost as soon as I get there and before dinner, they eagerly suppressed with a job offer off 210.000 a year, travelling the world and basically doing nothing more than PR work?
My problem is, I have a son knee high to a grasshopper and I would hate to miss out on watching him grow into a man. The other side of it is, this is only base salary and the potential of earning is in 600. 000 plus. My other problem is, I’ve been looking for a career change…geezzz Im confused.
What would you guys do if you were presented with a life changing opportunities under the same circumstance?

the same as you are no doubt doing, trying to consider all angles and possible outcomes.
I wont try to tell you which way you should lean, only you can make that decision after a lot of thought.
No matter what you decide, dont look back, the what if's will always plague you.
good luck with your decision, no matter what that is

hey there lookin, ya old fart.
I reckon at 13,( my youngest is 13), he will just want to hang with his friends, i am feeling that at the moment, my kids are hangin, staying with friends and i'm been staying at home, while they are having fun. Kids are always first priority, but there comes a time when they start spreading there wings. It is embarrassing to be seen with mum or dad.
ajax has a hard decision, i couldn't do it as i have the kids 100%. I would miss them so badly.

Oh my dear.
Lookin4missright: y thank you (i think) never been good at anything till now
Is that so,I beg to differ I see a gentle man with no confidence in himself, someone who is kind and loving to animals plus I would guess anyone who would give him a chance to love them they would love him.
Oh looking' get another dog or maybe two for as you know thier love is unconditional, save one or two of these poor little scraps at the lost dogs home.
Many of them face certain death,you know that people are more inclined to chat if you have a dog in tow as they know inherently that someone who loves their dog is a good person and can be
trusted just by seeing how well that dog is looked after.
Never been good at anything ...what rubbish.
You are a kind gentle human being and it cant get any better than that.
Sorry about hijacking your thread AA but it had to be said.

Hi Lookin,
We are all different, and I can appreciate the noble and romantic direction you're coming from about children and raising them. I don't think there is one of us who didn't put our children first. But that doesn't always translate to being to to them at the hip, no matter what age they are.
Children know when you care for them and love them, and it doesn't have to be that you are there 24/7. How many children have abusive parents who go to sleep and wake up terrified? Having the parent there 24/7 is actually detrimental and do better to be with caring strangers...It's not the quantity of anything, rather always the quality which counts.
Lookin4missright: Night gotta go & shove put sum new batteries in alarm dogs have to work in morn
Thats easy fixed get a BIG DOG with a huge and train him to bark on command at midnight.
Thanks everybody some great points being brought forward, some, that I never considered myself. Like taking advantage of technology and as well as educational advantages for my son by seeing how the other half of the world lives.
This is a pretty big decision for me, allot to consider and as well as having my own fears of failing and there is a fair bit of studying to do as well, like Human factor, comparative and industrial organisational psychology. Of course these are only abstracts designed around the company, no degrees necessary.
At this point I can see myself taking the job. The only thing now that is going to stop me is, if I get negative feedback from my son.
I think for now I need some time out and thanks guys for putting such a large effort into sharing and caring thoughts.
cheers

This could have a bearing on how his son reacts to the news and how comfortable he is with his Dad being overseas for lengthy periods.
Not to mention, without wanting to appear sanguine, that many women on here have managed to raise boys on their own who have become wonderful men (in response to the male role model issue).
I'm not suggesting for a second that this would be the case, but for a year or so's trial, it's really not the end of the world
So true about role models, much to be said on the topic. My son who had no father around other than school holidays when he went over, has grown to be a wonderful young man, independent and confident and right now overseas for a good part of this year. Many examples of this as you said.
Unless you sign up to be shot into space, AA, if you ensure your son will be safe in a secure environment, then seriously consider spreading your wings. You can turn this into something exciting for the two of you.
Perhaps AA could broach the topic by asking his son how would he like a free trip overseas, ermmm, twice a year. Oh, you do? Well, son, here's the thing, it's like this...
