[quote=Anonymous]I think you need to sit down together and come up with a budget for this theoretical plan. Make your expectations clear. It's one thing to ask that you cut back on eating out or move to a smaller apartment, but another thing entirely to ask you to add an unreasonably-long commute to your routine or to cut out emergency savings, college savings and retirement savings. Those are non-negotiable. Be open to an in-between solution. What if he can find a nanny share or half-day program for the kids and he cares for them the other half. Give him a number. "I am willig to contribute this much to child care. You need to be earning the difference or you need to find reputable child care that costs less.[/quote]
