[quote=Anonymous]Unpopular opinion. You can't convince an adult to do something they don't want to do. You can just control your own actions. Your husband isn't divorcing you because of the kids. Well, you are also choosing to stay with him. You want to follow some reading schedule and he doesn't. Well, you have a choice. You can either choose this hill to die on and get divorced, which ironically will result in your kids getting swaths of time with your DH who will do whatever he wants, including things you don't want. Or you can let it go and decide to focus on what you can do.

I think the thing is you are pretty screwed if you think you can control 100 percent of your kids' upbringing. If you divorce, he's gonna get visitation and you have that whole can of worms. Or you stay, and let him do whatever, and try to make him do more.

Honestly, I'd encourage him to go to happy hour or work out or something in the evenings. That way you can deal with the kids and he just shows up to bed.

I'd also just start living separate lives, not sleeping with him, etc. I'd just go through the paces and then say adios when the youngest turns 18.[/quote]
