I have just started my 3rd year of dental school and I hate it. I am in dentistry because of fear of not making it if I pursue my passion of filmmaking and to please my mom. I dropped out of graduate film school in the first two weeks because of fear and my mom. I've been depressed ever since. The problem is that I have over $250,000 in loans and to drop out now to go back to film school is risky. Do I tough it out and finish the last two years of dental school, pay back my loans for about 10 years or more and then go to film school and pursue film professionally then? OR, do I drop dental school now and pursue film now.

My indecision is killing me and I don't know what to do.

    Just be a stay at home "mother"untill your children are grown enough to bond with you. Be a "real houswive" and make your gentlemen work. At least strive to at least hold the title you once lost. Gain it back,you'll have everyone talk highly of you. Women are round about respectable for this. Being able to raise their kids,no matter the irony,of it. When your man works sacrifice and make payments to get yourself out of dept. Not everybody does it over night. But in the end you will be considered the Noble women. That endured being a stay at home "mother" it pays off when your children will remember you for this and respect you for it. No amount of money can support a multitude of love. Pay no mind to those who try&dictate what is best for you.because deep down inside you know what is true. A child in a two parent home have so many benifits,only if you use them,yet. Think about what they would be saying 20yrs from now. Will they say my mom always had us with everybody else.change the cycle.Be a stay@ home mom!
