[quote=Anonymous]If you've both chosen to have demanding careers that require you to work long hours and/or travel in the evenings so that you can't be engaged with your family, you need to figure something else out. That doesn't mean every whim of hers should be satisfied, but it also shouldn't be that your kids know they cannot rely on their parents to be there during the week. Whether it's getting a second car to make it easier to have someone present when the kids need something, or getting a nanny who can work into the evening to help you with their needs at that point, or someone scaling back at work, it's pretty lousy to decide to have kids (especially that many) and then both of you check out on parenting them until the weekend.[/quote]
