[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m an elementary school principal and work long hours. But none of that matters because my spouse and I have much older kids. When the kids were younger, I definitely came home by dinner.

You have to sit down and talk this through. His hours are not working for your family. Period. He has to give some activities up and set some boundaries around the time he will be home. You won’t get all the time you’d like to have because in a compromise you don’t get everything.

Good luck to you. [b]The issue you’re describing is not a new one between couples and certainly not just about being married to educators.[/b] [/quote]
True. I was just having this conversation with my partner. You both need to have an open conversation about things that you want to do and what needs to be done. Do you feel like your husband is avoiding responsibilities at home or does he just love his job? Are people above him volatile and punishing if he doesn't do something? There  are a lot of variables[/quote]
