[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to face reality - you are in your late 30s and only have a few more years to make a move. Either accept a lower income in exchange for more time with your kids, or get yourself into the best paying job you can. [/quote]

Unfortunately someone has to make enough money to cover expenses, etc. I have been accepting a lower income in exchange for more time with kids, but unfortunately the roller coaster nature of my DH's career means that either he has to start making more on an ongoing basis, or I need to move into a higher salaried position. It sounds like the consensus is that I need to do that. I am just wondering whether I can handle the marriage under those circumstances. I know I will continue to have to do most things with/for the kids or direct him and specifically manage him like he is my employee. Recipe for disaster. Yes, I agree he is immature, selfish, and lazy. Did I mention sexist? UGH KILL ME. Thanks again for everyone's advice. [/quote]
