[quote=Anonymous]Going back to school should only be an option you're considering if your wife thinks it's worthwhile and would happy to be the primary breadwinner while you get your new degree. It's not about being a "man" or whatever. It's that being the sole breadwinner can be a lot of stress, even more so when your dependent spouse is not available to take on childcare and homemaking tasks, like a more typical SAHP, because he's busy with school instead. It really changes the dynamics of the family for there to be one spouse earning and the other not. It should be a mutual decision how to proceed from here - whether you spend family income (her salary presumably) on nursing school tuition or if you just go for whatever job you can find, regardless of the field.[/quote]
