I don't say much anymore simply because I don't have much time but this post made me reply.

Merrioc... I may be mistaken, but it sounds to me that you are saying that a submissive should not even bother looking for a dominant if they are married with children and a career. If this is what you are saying, then I would have to say that it is an unfair statement. I know of plenty submissives who are married with kids who have found a dominant patient and tolerant enough to take on a submissive in his or her situation. That, in itself, is worth searching for.

Because they are married with children should not exclude them from searching for something that makes them happy and feel whole. To deny them something that is a part of them because they have other aspects in their life, more to do than just wait patiently on their knees begging and praying to be used as his or her master would deem fit is, in my opinion, a little arrogant.

Some people don't even realize their submissive tendencies until long after they are married with children but that does not mean that they should let their desires and instincts go to rot just because they are married with kids, especially if their spouse is okay with them pursuing that side of themselves.

I feel that it is their right to prusue this side of themselves and to find the Dominant or "One" that will accept them and willingly take any time that the submissive has to give and know that while they are together, that submissive is theirs and only theirs.

But that is only my opinion.
