[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't need as much money as you are making as a family, and making that much money is making your life less enjoyable. You can change this. [/quote] Bad answer. Because her dh will STILL refuse to do his share no matter how much or how little she works. This is a DH issue, not a leaning in/big job issue. [/quote] So what’s your solution? He’s not likely to change. She could divorce him, but I can assure you that will not lighten her mental load. Or she can use that $200k he brings in to hire some quality help to get her through the child-rearing years. [/quote] Or she can accept that he's not going to lean out exactly the way she wants him to, so she can lean out and make their lives the way she wants it. They can live on $200K and someone has to be there for the kids.[/quote]
