[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It gets better as they get older. Can you afford extra help in the mornings or afternoons? I served very simple meals when the kids were little and joined a carpool when they hit elementary. [/quote] NP. Disagree. It is much harder when they start doing extracurricular activities.[/quote] Then you need have to limit them to accommodate your household if you can't afford help. [/quote] No. If you want a kid to excel at anything, there is a significant time commitment. Even 1 activity can eat up several evenings/weekenfs. If there is more than one kid, even a once a week activity is now at least on two days a week [/quote] And that's why there are so many divorces. [/quote] This has nothing to do with divorce. My parents are married. I am divorced. We do this married or divorced. It literally does not matter. Busy 5-7 days week except summer. It is the way it is. [/quote] I'd cut back on the extracurriculars before threatening my spouse with divorce. [/quote] What are you talking about? This is nothing to do with divorce. Parenting is harder after kindergarten. Period. The same routine is going to happen no matter the marital status. This had nothing to do with divorcing. [/quote] The comment was made in response to an earlier one that Op should threaten divorce if her DH doesn’t do more. [/quote] Oh. That is stupid. [/quote]
