[quote=Anonymous]OP, I say this as a WOHM w/ kids in college/near college who has worked the entire time. You're expectations are unreasonable. Whether you realize it or not, having a SAHM has made your life easier in many ways, just as not having paid employment has made her life easier. You really thought that after 15+ years out of the workforce that she would be able to just bounce back in and be a significant contributor to the finances? That's... not how it works. If the expectation was for her to go back to work and get back on some sort of a career ladder, then she should not have stayed home for as long as she did. If she only stayed home until the youngest was school-aged, then maybe should would have had a fighting shot of getting back in and making some money. But now? Honestly, you both made this bed.
