Question for INTJs (Myers-Briggs personality type)?

I am an INTJ female and most of the common career paths do not interest me. I really want to work with children, I love children and being around them. I also want to have a large family. I have always been great with kids, they all love me.

My question is, are there any other INTJs that are like this? Everything I have read about them says they don't usually do well with children. All I have talked to online have said that they don't care to be around kids, don't like kids, don't want kids, etc....

My husband is also an INTJ and kids make him super nervous, but he wants a family also. But every time we are around kids I'm just all about them and love hanging out with them while he is sitting in the corner looking like he could cry, haha. The only time I am ever sociable is when I am with children. I guess I see them as having not been corrupted yet by society and any one of them has the potential to shape into a great human being. I enjoy very much being around them.

Everything else about INTJs fits me perfectly. Is there any other INTJ that has chosen this career path or are just naturally good with children? Just wondering!

    I'm INTJ and I'm kind of a combination of you and your husband. I love kids and I'm nervous around them.
