[quote=Anonymous]We have a 7yo and a 4yo. Both DH and I work 40-50 hour weeks. This summer we found a babysitter who we all love so once a week she picks up our kids from afterschool and DH and I have a local date night, home by 7 or so for kids bedtime. Weekends we usually try to trade off to give each other a few hours alone, and we've started letting the kids watch a lot more TV in the morning so we can just chill in bed longer, which also feels like "me" time. Maybe once or twice per month we'll each have something work or social that will keep us out past bedtime. OP, your dh seems to be asking for a lot. Definitely more than I would be happy with, but more importantly more than you're happy with. [/quote]
