[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I quit my job in basically that situation. It came down to one or the other and he was never going to make the professional changes. We were both in biglaw. [/quote]

I don't get this Biglaw starts at 215k these days. So both of you were making atleast 500k, no.

With 100k in house help, you can pretty much outsource 75% of stuff. Why quit?[/quote]
Typical DCUM.

Some people would like to see their children for more than 15 minutes a day. Imagine that. Do you think it's a good idea for children to be raised by 2 parents who both work 12 hour days? [/quote]

Then say that. Don't blame dishes, laundry, sheduling, cooking etc. Those can and should be outsourced. I agree with you that time spent with kids cannot be outsourced. But that's about it.

My DH loves reading to his kids every single night, and he won't give thst up for a million bucks.[/quote]

Outsourcing is also something to maintain and manage.  It's not like a house fairy shows up and just magically does it all when you think about it.  How do people not understand this?[/quote]
