[quote=Anonymous]Of course you are being reasonable. Calmly inform him that, since he doesn't think his work hours allow him to participate in child care coverage, you will hire a nanny/ babysitter who can provide coverage. If he has a big job, there should be enough salary to cover that. Do not let him talk you into, well that should come out of your salary only. A baby is made from the DNA of two people. His salary and your salary together are marital assets of both of you, and can be used to cover childcare. In divorce, he will find that he has to cover childcare costs in proportion to his income v yours, which may well be more than the 50/50 split of assets in a divorce. If he doesn't think his current job is a good fit for two working parents, that is a different issue; he is free to look for another job that he feels is a better fit. when he finds one that allows him to do more childcare, you can let the babysitter go.[/quote]
