My other option is to divorce my husband because life sucks with someone when you do not share core values. That’s what I am leaning towards.[/quote]

Which choice would be better for your kids?

1. Attend private schools while living with a bitter divorced mom and an absent dad, or

2. Attend public schools while living with parents who love and respect each other in spite of their different values?

If you divorce your husband, are you SURE you can find a better, more driven, one to replace him?

Most parents who send kids to private schools do so more as an ego boost for themselves than from any concern about their children's education. Are you going to pressure your kids to choose high paid careers instead of following their passions, because you worked so hard to send them to expensive schools and they owe it to you to satisfy your dreams instead of their own?[/quote]

I agree with this. We are in the opposite situation and we always say we feel  lucky I have a flexible job so I can pick the kids up from school, take them to the doctors, have them stay home with me some weeks in the summer so we don’t have to pay for camp. I can pick them up and drop off without paying for after care….do you really want both of you to be stressed out at work and working long hours? Is this your only issue with your dh? If it is, it certainly isn’t worth getting divorced over. Maybe seek marriage counseling. Also have him pick up the slack…make dinner, make lunches, book kids activities, do laundry.

Again you can't go back in time OP. To answer your question, clearly a lot of women are attracted to ambitious men. But ask yourself given where you are and who you married, what is the best thing for you and your kids? Is it really divorce?[/quote][/quote]
