[quote=Anonymous]My husband is not in big law but works a job with similarly demanding hours (late nights and weekends). I quit my job. Honestly I hated being back at work anyway, but it didn’t help that I was working full time + primary parent evenings and weekends. It just made more sense to redefine my responsibilities as primary parent only. We have figured out a better balance now and he is off work for dinner through bedtime every day. Then if he chooses to resume and work til 10pm or whatever instead of having personal time, that’s up to him. It’s a grind for both of us but it’s hopefully not forever. We have goals of early retirement so it’s worth the long hours right now.[/quote]
