[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But I would feel terrible, as a PP discussed earlier, not being able to give an older child what she wants because we can't afford it. Of course, I could end up meeting someone else, but I remember what's out there in the dating world and I figure I need to be okay with being alone before I exit my marriage. [/quote] OP, no kid gets everything she wants. Take that one off your plate. You have enough for a reasonable middle class existence (No, not DCUM middle class, but you have enough.) I think you should have a very honest conversation with your parents and ask the how much support (I'm thinking time, not money) they thought they could provide you. Things like babysitting of course, but also would they run to CVS for you if you were home with a sick kid? I think you can do this. Good luck![/quote]
