Do you think that working for the CIA or a a similar agency will keep you away from your family?

Working for these type of clandestine agencies can land you anywhere anytime. When you get your marching orders, you won't have time to kiss your wife goodbye.If that's your bag, go for it.

Definately not, they require a college degree and several years of real world experience.  Its very tough to go to work for them.  The average age of a new Special Agent is 30.

I came from a family of 5 older brothers and I am the youngest and only  girl. We are very close, and we all have kids that are very close.  We do alot together including going on long vacations together, we take our kids to the park together and 3 of us work together along with our mother and my husband. we work in a large company so we are not that close during the day but at lunch we make sure we at least have that time together.  Also I tried to move away 4 years ago to try and make a better life for my family and I we moved 16 hours away to where living was a lot cheaper but after 2 years we had to come back for my grandmother needed me and after she no longer needed my assistance we decided we couldn't leave again we really need ot be with our family. I have two brothers who moved to the other side of the country but we talk everyday either IM or phone I wouldn't have it any other way and I know they wouldn't either. I myself now have five children of my own

I would be CIA ...who wouldn't want to be a spy.

IF it is done legally, then no.  As long as the spying is consistant with Constitutional protections against unwarrented intrusions into my private life, then I won't worry.  Let the government agencies get warrents first.

Do I no how you feel!! Welcome to the Black sheep of the family club :0)\n\nMove out of the house. You are the strong hold of the family. This is how I rationalized my situation. Now that I have been out for quite a while I get phone calls for help from my family. What should I do, or this is what mom is doing how can I....\nAs far as not being able to release the same way they do to you what I did is find others outside of the family....Parents are supposed to be there for there kids but in todays world this is not always the case.\nGood luck it will not be long before you are out on your own...

The FBI is not one agency I would go work for if I wanted a career in law-enforcement. You have to have a college degree prior to applying and your potential to earn a hell of a lot more money is better going else where. I have worked with a lot of FBI folks and for the most part are great people but the bureaucratic crap keeps them from being just shy of human. If you put 4 years into college you deserve a lot better then wasting it on chasing Hobbs or Ricco Act cases and being at the whim of someone else as to where you have to live.

Not that I heard of. I do not think their mothers want to keep them in their house, they could be such a bad influence to others that surround them.

Sounds like there is alot more to the problem then u r saying but i can understand u not wanting to go into it. I have a problem with trust and i tend only to befriend my family i have no friends either but choose not to cause down the track they will only stab u in the back. Good luck.

We have the wisdom to choose our life. Anything or Anyone which abducts your freedom and dignity should be avoided at any cost. So dare to quit. Be open to your new employer....

psychologist would be an easier job to get.  There is a lot of work and effort involved in getting into the CIA.  And it's not the glory you see in movies either.  If you are interested, contact them and they can tell you more about the CIA.  I'm not sure psychology is a major they are after, so if you are leaning that direction, you might need to change your major.

Yep.  Happens all the time.  If I found a job that I liked and was satisfied with what it paid, who cares if the family is getting hired?  They aren't smart enough to do what i do anyway.  ;-)\n\nLook at it this way...if they hire you, and you are not family, then you must be pretty special, eh?

I guess you are dealing with a family problem, and you are afraid that this particular problem could interfere with your life, I believe at work or somewhere else, right? I still don't know if I got it. I also don't know what problem is, or how much harm could it do to you, so, on the basis of this information only, my only advice is to solve this problem as soon as possible, and get on with your life. \nSome extra details would be helpful!

I have the philosopy of don't trust anyone and it is usually true.  Just because they are related to you doesn't mean you should blindly trust them.  Trust is earned, not automatic.  You've learned the same thing lots of people have in that area sadly; never trust anyone to not pull something over on you.

I WOULD FEEL OBLIGATED TO STAY IN THE STATES BECUASE I HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FOUR KIDS.  IF IT WAS JUST ME I MIGHT CONISDER IT BUT YOU GO THERE AT GREAT RISK AND BECOME HOSTAGE BAIT.

I don't think so.  I think you should have closure, but not talking to the people that were supposed to protect you the most and didn't is not out of line.  It probably hurts not to have supportive parents and I wouldn't talk to mine.  It would be like saying that what they did was ok.

This may not be much comfort, but most people have screwed up families.   However there are only a few like you and I that will admit it.    My family is the same, sometimes it gets so bad I have to stay away from some of them for months on end.    I have learned that they may be my family, but sometimes you have to put some distance between you and  them for survival..
