I'm a young lady about to enter my senior year of high school, and I'm narrowing down my decisions on my career path. I love language, but I also have an affinity for the medical field and helping people. I am trying to combine the two interests, and I have come upon Speech-Language Pathology.

What I want out of my future: I don't wish to pursue a fierce career path. I want to be a mommy some day with my husband as the main "bread-winner". However, I wish to live a pretty comfortable lifestyle with a stable job for the both of us.
Do you think SLP is a good career for a lady who wishes to live a traditional life with a family some day? Is it too much commitment?
Also, what are the pros and cons of being a Speech-Language Pathologist? Is it a stressful job? Would I make more money if I started my own practice with a partner, perhaps my husband?
