[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We talk through any decision that could impact the family (commute, extra hours, a pay adjustment etc). [/quote] +1 same here. I've asked about different things like if he was considering grad school or management track and he said no and his reasoning and that was that. I don't think you can push someone into doing something careerwise they either don't want to do or aren't ready to do. It even makes less sense to do so when it would result in me taking on more child related and household duties for something DH was not interested in doing in the first place. So we basically only talk over things the other person is motivated to do that has could have a negative impact on the whole family like increasing work travel, making less money in a job move, changing to a job with longer commute etc.[/quote]
