[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly? He need to fix this. It’s unreasonable for him to have this schedule while the kids are young. He needs to get better at his job or be making enough money that he’s hiring babysitters, meal services, cleaners, etc. [/quote] +1 I’m sorry op, this sounds really hard but for me I’d have a long convo with my husband about how this is impacting me and the family in general, reflect on our family’s long term goals and come up with a plan together to get to a place where he’s at a minimum engaging in weekends more. This set up isn’t good for anyone long term. He might not be able to make the changes immediately, but if you can come up with a game plan for how to get there (hiring x number of people for example, or even making less next year because he takes weekends off, whatever it takes, you have to balance all the things) than at least you’d have something to work towards and know it’s temporary.
