[quote=Anonymous]OP, so your wife has a $125k/yr job? Honestly, while it's not 500k, that's probably also not a job with a ton of "work-life balance". Your wife needs to put better boundaries in place with work. But only she can do that. I'd send the kids to the grandparents (+if possible) one Friday night and have a state of the household conversation when she gets home about whether the job she has really makes sense for your family. If she loves it, but isn't doing it for the money, then when she takes a step back and sees how it affects the family life she presumably also values, you can hope it will spark a realization that she needs to set boundaries at work too. I'm not saying she should quit a job she loves. She should keep the job, but leave everyday at 6pm. If work days boo about it, find a different company.[/quote]
