[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like your wife is burnt out. But your kids are 11 and 14, so they still need someone to parent them and nobody's life is going to be easier if she walks out (except maybe hers if her plan is to not have custody of the kids). So how can you get some alone time for her? Can you kids go to sleepaway camp for some weeks during the summer or visit relatives out of town for a couple weeks? My kids are away right now and not having to worry about them is a huge relief. Can you take more responsibility for dinners or decide as a family that dinners will be simple sandwiches or something 5/7 days per week? Can you free her up for some weekends away with friends or to visit family? Basically, I would try to give her a couple week chunk of time where she can just be alone and then figure out how to support her in rebalancing her life. [/quote]
