[quote=Anonymous]How old is he? At a certain point, changing careers to a more demanding job is risky.

I find your post to be strange, OP. You are basically saying that your life is wonderful, and your husband is clearly not happy with either work or family life, but your solution is to pressure him to quit his job to find another one with more money? Is this really the right place to start?

How about figuring out why he doesn't want to be around his family? You say that he doesn't want to change jobs even though he supposedly doesn't like it. Have you tried to understand why? Is he depressed? If there some kind of issue with your relationship? Does he agree with your assertion that a higher-paying job is a necessity? Maybe this would provide a clue as to how to approach him getting a higher-paying job. Or, maybe you would find that he has a good reason for not snapping to it. You seem weirdly detached and are basically making him out to be kind of a loser but I don't fully trust your objectivity.[/quote]
