[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I apologized. I am more stressed out about this than he is (I grew up in poverty and worry a lot about money). [b]My logic was we'd save a little money and avoid some distractions, but apparently this logic is flawed.[/b] He is a great father. This all happened a couple weeks ago and today, for the first time, tensions rose to the surface. I feel terrible, yet also wish he'd operate with more urgency. [/quote] Emphasis mine. Good that you apologized. As for the bolded, what are you going to give up to reduce costs? Does it have to be something he enjoys, right now that he's been dealt a crap hand? I suggest you brainstorm together and find a solution that is agreeable to both, while leaving some things each of you enjoys on the budget - within reasons. Also, in your original post, you didn't seem to come from a thought-pattern of frugality at all. You even used the word "grounded". He's not a child who gave you sass, for heaven's sake.[/quote] And you won't save a whole lot of money if you still need internet, which you do, for job searching. But networking is the way to go. He should have a networking goal for each soccer goal! signed, bitter person who cut out the cable but still pays too much just for internet! I miss sports![/quote]
