[quote=Anonymous]Could you just not compare yourselves to single parents? Please. I was a financially comfortable SAHM to two under five, in a soul-sucking marriage. I left my marriage and now work fifty hours a week and raise two children under five. Both have downsides and both have upsides. But even when I was terribly depressed in my terrible marriage, I still had another set of hands around. I find it really hard to believe that OP's husband never does anything. If nothing else, you don't have the stress of having to provide for your kid(s) alone. CS is a very small percentage of ex's income. It's NOT like you live the same lifestyle when you are actually single, unless you had significant savings/family help. Being in a sad and horrible marriage with a selfish spouse sucks, but single parent it does not you make. [/quote]
