[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two issues - the danger of the sport, and the the time/expense it takes away from family. To me the second is much more damaging. I think he's a fool for risking his life when he's got a spouse and kids, but good life insurance can shield you from at least the loss of his income and help. While he's out playing, though, he's sticking you with the childcare and he's burning joint funds. You should consider (1) marriage counseling and [b](2) insisting on equal time and funds to do your own thing. [/b]

As for the injury, does your job not have any flexibility? Spouse's hospitalization is a pretty clear cut reason for leave of absence, at my job. Also, do you have family, neighbors, church, etc to help? You can ask for help with carpool, meal trains, etc. And have DH take a Lyft to appointments. [/quote]

OP, you absolutely MUST do this if you want this hobby BS to stop. He needs a taste of his own medicine to realize what a burden it is to stick you with small children for a gazillon weekends while he goes to enjoy himself. If he knows he’s going to have to put the work in to provide you with equal time, he will absolutely cut back. But you have to actually do it. [/quote]
