Well let's see. This is a complicated yet very common dilema many families face. I truely believe there are not enough hours in the day to please everyone. In Farah's scenario I would evaluate my finances first. If there are no big problems in that arena and she has a supportive family, I would run my goals and aspirations by them to get an objective opinion. Obviously opening a new business is very stressful and demanding. However, with the support of loved ones and a strong desire to succeed Farrah could probably open a buisness and still be around her mother and three little ones.

i will not quit my job without a new one that pays better. i'd rather deal with the sadness or boredom with my job and co-workers than to see my family having a hard time due to financial problems. like you said, the husband's income is not enough for the family's needs so it will not be wise to quit the job just because of sadness. family's welfare should come first.
