[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I gave up a F/T position when the kids were young so my lawyer DH could focus 100% on his career without ever having to juggle. Would you not working make any difference in his stress level? I take care of a lot of the administrative headaches that my DH just doesn't have the bandwidth for. [/quote]

OP - no I don't think it would make any difference for his stress level. When he is super busy I already take over any of the extras that he is doing at the house. When he has time he helps. When he doesn't I do everything.  [/quote]

So all of his stress is from his job.  Maybe he’s not meant for the type of job he’s in.  Too stressful with worrying about billable hours and overwhelmed when it’s very busy.  It has nothing to do with your job or the children.

If his health would improve with a calmer atmosphere in the work place he should look around to see what’s out there.  Hopefully you could manage a pay cut and it would make for a happier home.  [/quote]
