[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know that work is hard and that many of us have to work long hours and I have a great respect for a strong work ethic. My question is when does plain old working hard end and workaholic tendencies begin. How do you tell the difference? How do you know when there is just too much time spent working and how does a spouse introduce moderation?[/quote] Counseling. After a few sessions set some family and relationship goals. Ego re money and perceived prestige are big reasons for never getting off the hamster wheel. People pleaser types too. Severe worry about money perhaps. No real Dad role model so why bother. Can't multitask in life so chooses to only focus on and at office work. All sorts of underlying reasons. [/quote]
