[quote=Anonymous]I also have a spouse that puts in tons of long hours and is gone at least some portion of most weekends and holidays. I'm a SAHM to 3. It has been especially hard with child #3 being young and the other two being elementary age. I'm not able to do all the fun activities they want to do with a toddler in tow by myself. We have had the talk many times about the terrible work schedule and we just don't see eye to eye about it. He strongly feels the financial gains are worth it and has an early retirement in sight. While we can afford it, I don't outsource and I always say I will but then feel guilty about it. But this year I am getting a babysitter for one morning a week to help me out a bit. [/quote]
