Partner has a huge career opportunity in a neighbour country. Said country is well known for its wealth and quality of life.

The thing is, it would be difficult for me to keep working : first step is to learn from scratch a new language, and only then enter in a complementary formation of 5 years, to have the equivalent of my professional title there. Plus, their traditional conception of family and motherhood makes it rather uncommon to invest in a career as a woman. I understand that there is some social pressure, and that the school system - even if it's very good - is not made to be compatible with working moms.

There is a high risk I fail and end up as staying-home wife. What would I do then ? I'm not sure to handle the shame and the depression coming with the feeling of uselessness. On the other hand, this is the country where partner has the best chances, and probably one of the happiest of our continent. Other thing : even if he's the only provider, de would be significantly richer there.

Hell of a dilemma.
