[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Sure he can get another job. But it won’t pay even half of his salary now. And we have a mortgage that is based on his current salary. Ideally in a few years we can revisit that option. And to the pp that asked. No we have no family here at all. All are 4 hours or more away. [b]And to the pp that said to stop whining and “I knew what I was signing up for”. You know things always seem more manageable before kids. He actually worked even more than and it was totally fine. So yeah. The hypothetical and reality are two different things. We have been together since we were 19. Sure I knew what I was signing up for-but should I have not married the man I love because he has a demanding job? Come on. But yeah. [/b]I’m just going to hire someone and he will have to be ok with it.[/quote] I assume you are responding to me as that quote ... I realize that life changes a lot when you have kids and nothing can really get you ready for it but seriously what did you think it would be like with kids if your DH was working 80-100 hours a week? I knew that if DH was going to be in big law that with the big paycheck came a lot of working hours. I still wanted kids so I was and am willing to do more of the work at home in order to make my DH's life easier so he doesn't have to be stressed at work and at home. But that works for us. Do what works for you. [/quote] She's responding to a snarky one-liner post that Jeff already deleted. [/quote]
