[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You've set your priorities, and she knows where she falls[/b]. I'm also curious to know where the other parent is in this, and why that parent can't do these things for her. After all, if you're working those kinds of hours, you sure as hell had better be sufficiently well compensated to afford a second car so that everyone else in the family isn't held hostage to your work schedule.[/quote] This. I hope you start to recognize this. [/quote] Scale back the job. That's what 99% of us did. If one of us has the "BIG" job (long hours, stress, consistent evening work, and/or travel) the other one scales back to a 9-5. I live in NW DC and almost everyone I know (about 100 families) has this arrangement. [/quote]
