[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We've had tutors galore and house keepers. If I get home at 8 pm and they go to bed at 10:30 (yes), that gives me 2.5 hours with them. Assuming I have nothing else to do. He gets home at 3 (or earlier) and has 6.5 hours with them. He really is on the low end of the spectrum WRT household management. No initiative, no intuition. We are now thinking of getting a home maintenance contract because I am tired of reminding him to go things like call the gutter cleaners. I told my oldest that sometimes, things simply don't work out. She asked why, and I simply said that I am just too tired. [/quote] And your solution for your husbands inferior parenting is to get divorced and have him take the kids? I get the sense that you think if you dump your kids off then you won't still bear any responsibility for how things turn out with them. If you don't like what he does with them at home then have them do more after school activities, particularly academic things. My suggestion would be out of the home tutoring (mathnasium etc), Kumon, or whatever else their schools might offer. Enough with the excuses. If all three of your kids are flailing it's your fault too. [/quote]
