[quote=Anonymous]Your situation sounds very familiar to me. I feel as if I have heard your story over and over again over the last decade. Unfortunately, as you said, you didn't define the terms of your arrangement with great specificity from the get go. Now that things have calmed down, your husband seems to have a lot of time free and that annoys you. It is totally understandable. That being said, I think you wrote your post when upset. You need to talk to him and let him know how you feel. Be honest, be sincere, don't be mean. Sleep well, eat well, AND then talk about it. Don't do it when tired or hungry - trust me. If he gets it and agrees that he was wrong and shows commitment he will change, then I think he should continue to stay home. If not, let him go back to work, hire a nanny - you have the money!! It will be easier. It is tough to have a stay at home spouse, that is why I decided that my husband and I needed to both work so that we are on equal terms and can be going through the same difficulties in life. Of course, it makes childcare expensive and more difficult to manage, but I fee like that way we can be on the same page and we can better understand each other. Its tough. Good luck, anything can be resolved. [/quote]
