Why do you think going back to school is not a good idea?
gpt
I didn't say it's not a good idea. It's just not practical for me right now.
human
But you've been talking about wanting to further your education for years now. What's holding you back?
gpt
My job and our kids. I can't just up and leave my job and we need to figure out childcare if I'm going to go back to school.
human
We can work those things out. And it's not like you'll be going full-time. You can take some courses at night or online.
gpt
I know, but I'm just not sure if I have the energy to juggle everything.
human
Don't you think it's worth it in the long run though? You'll have more career opportunities and be able to provide better for our family.
gpt
Of course, I understand that. But I don't want to neglect our family or my current job either.
human
I'm not asking you to neglect anything. I just think it's important to invest in ourselves and our future.
gpt
I agree with you. Maybe we can sit down and figure out a plan that works for everyone.
human
That's all I'm asking for. I just want us to support each other's goals and dreams.
