[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Read about over-functioning and under-functioning in relationships. Instead of issuing an ultimatum for change, see if there are changes that you can make that will shift some of the balances. This might mean that you [b]Do more with the kids [/b]while she looks for new jobs, etc. [/quote]

Do more with the kids? What the hell do you do with high schoolers? I see mine at dinner if I’m lucky.  They don’t need rides b/c they either drive or take the county or late bus. [/quote]

Ours don't drive yet so they need rides every night to sports and other activities.  And, to school and back.  Plus, we actually spend time together.[/quote]

To school and back?  Thats on you for making work for yourself.

Rides to sports every night?

Fine, he's a GS15, so he can punch out at 5, and then drive the kids to sports.  Or they can do carpool like 99% of parents.

During the work week, the kids have homework, sports, etc, its not like you have family bowling or something.[/quote]

Not all publics provide buses.  How else will they get to school?  Not carpooling and having to drive other kids.  Far more inconvenient.

That only works if your kids have later sports.  Ours are at 5:15, so he'll make it home and to the practice in 15 minutes.  Good for him.[/quote]

You are literally just making up scenarios now. You have no idea what OP does or doesn’t do with the kids, what his wife does or doesn’t do, and what his kids’  schedules are. All do these posts disparaging OP for imaginary sins are off the deep end, and I’m used to this board being ridiculously pro-wife. [/quote]
