[quote=Anonymous]Didn’t read the entire thread but since the money is there why not hire a full time nanny who is willing to do housework when you’re with the kids? So much of what you did is just typical grind of having young kids and while the gender balance of work sucks but that’s also not unusual and I’m not sure divorce is ever worth it in these cases.

At least your spouse makes a lot of money that should free up things. We don’t have any of that and years later I still do the bulk of family stuff. All the camp and school planning, all the forms the communications (dh can’t even figure out the online school portals to oversee homework), all our finances and taxes , most of the cooking and tidying (we have cleaners) though no have stepped back on cooking recently . I also work more hours and care for a parent with dementia.  We have help: inhired an afterschool driver and biweekly cleaners anddh runs the rest of the errands and does most appointments since he has a more flexible job. Kids are also tween and teen so much different that little ones and that’s much readier. However soon spouse will likely go into office (remote fed being called back) and be gone Monday through Friday. So I’m going to be close to a single parent.  If he made 100k more a year I would go part time or just retire because I’m tired just thinking about it.  Since you have the means just hire a full time person or a housekeeper to come daily for a few hours. [/quote]
