Retail. Period. ---------- Post added 06-11-2011 at 10:11 PM ---------- Can I have a classic INTJ moment and ask ... what the fuck did you expect after having a child? There is nothing more grating than a parent who bitches about an innocent child's early development stages. Did you seriously expect to have a philosophical discussion about Dianetics or atomic theory by 36 weeks? Or a request for a bidet from a one-year-old? You do know what causes babies, right? If you're so totally brilliant that you feel so above the tasks and patience required of raising a small, underdeveloped human being, then you would know it's a simple physics equation, and that there is a magical pill to prevent the outcome. By the way, I'm sure your mother wasn't in the midst of Mardi Gras when you were an infant/toddler, and probably had half the conveniences of mothers today.

Very funny, you are probably not a mommy, huh.

Cause if you were you would understand what I meant. It is not that I expect an intelligent conversation, but I am here to say that it is rather monotonous and boring to be shut up with small children for years on end.

I raised three children and I am speaking from experience. Fortunately, I worked too. I looked forward to getting dressed and leaving the house to spend time with adults doing intellectually stimulating work.

I also enjoyed (enjoy still) my children now 18, 15, and 14.

I would just not recommend FULL TIME PARENTING as an INTJ career choice. Just saying.

Ah, yes, the overused 'you're not a mommy, you don't know what you're talking about' argument. Tell that to every Victorian governess that ever lived. But I'm not the one who had to have three kids to realize that I didn't like full-time parenting.

Fortunately, toddlers have evolved since the mid-nineties. I'm a three-year-old that poops toonies.

Most three year olds are better behaved!

That is a highly debatable matter.

	As a side-note, Hillary Clinton is an INTJ, and Obama is like an ENFJ. I think you know which I wanted in power.

I have seen where Hillary is categorised as an ENTJ which is probably more fitting. She is very outgoing and likes being in the spotlight.

	I'm totally not telling you what your preference should be, but I think MBTI is mostly irrelevant to whether or not you find parenting enjoyable. I know many 'childcare-types' who get fed up and worn down with kids and are miserable as a parent. Conversely, I know many NT mothers who love it, and do a pretty dang good job too.

I'd rather be working with/being a candy stripper for old people any day! There are only certain/very few children I can stand.

Worst career/job for an INTJ?

Basically any job where your boss has achieved his rank/position by seniority, political maneuvering, etc. as opposed to having achieved it via merit or performance. Even worse if your boss is a proven idiot...

This. That includes almost any job you might otherwise be suited for (unless you're the one to make the rules).

Erm ... I disagree with you on that one. I live in a semi-retirement community as a twenty year-old, and I can assure you, senior citizens sometimes behave more asinine than children. It astounds me that generations whom experienced famine and the second world war can be so whiny and trivial about the dumbest, non-serious issues. A lot of them you can't tell them anything because they're 'wise' and shit. Never mind that they can't drive and bankrupt the city with their pampered demands and reluctance to move forward. As well, my mother use to work in psycho geriatrics back in the 1980s and it was the most disgusting, dangerous job with terrible pay.

I think a lot of people are giving young children a bad wrap here. I tutored at a school last year and ran into only one kid I was tempted to kick the shit out of (I sent him back to class instead). All the permanent students I had were clean, polite and reasonably focused, so I don't get how most of you have some perception that most kids run around in a circle screaming, dumping ketchup all over the floor.

On the contrary, I also volunteered at a medical lab for sometime when I was weighing career options. Sophist it to say, the amount of unhygienic adults and rudeness to go with it would blow your mind. Dealing with kids was a lot more sane, and I think a lot of people on this board take their ideologies from a few grocery store incidences and Super Nanny.

I have a firm belief that demon spawns are not born, but made.

When you work with children you deal with children AND the [sometimes helicopter] parents. Most of the time when you're taking care of old people, you don't deal with the old person's family. You know how parents get, if they talk the wrong way at home, you automatically blame the "education the child gets outside the home" and that means the child's caretaker or babysitter or nanny or teacher. Especially the types of parents who enroll their children into Ivy League preschools with waiting lists.
