[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]no educated person wants to focus on serving others -- even beloved children or partners -- in a menial capacity for decades. [/quote] I have a PhD and I love "serving" my kids. I will have to serve them for ten more years. The nature of the service has of course changed over time, with the more "menial" tasks (changing diapers, bathing them) performed when they were under 5. Obviously I am also teaching them to take care of themselves more and more as they get older. But right now (for example) I still cook for them, and I love doing so. It is really pathetic that you regard the work of raising children as "menial".[/quote] So, you will serve them for ten more years, and then what? You will be in the place OP’s wife is in. Are you going to continue to focus your life on serving your husband and adult children? Are you still going to love cooking for him every night? Or are you going to want to shift that focus to other things? [/quote]
