That...is not my experience at all. I don't doubt your experience or the trope, just...very opposite of what my own life experience has been.

*nods*

I agree with your comment. I don't doubt the OP's personal experience, but mine is very different.

In fact, in my experience, women who want to raise families often go into education because the flexible schedule and time off that coincides with school vacations is very conducive to child-rearing. The Victorian governess was traditionally childless (for many reasons that don't really apply in modern settings), but I don't think that trend applies to educators in the K-12 arena.

Yeah, same here. My mom used to babysit when I was growing up and almost every single kid she babysat had a parent who was a teacher. Although I went to a smaller school in a small town, so I'm unsure how much of an influence that may have had.
