[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] 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. [/quote] These were my exact thoughts too! It's unrealistic for a middle-aged woman to jump right into a career job after 15 or so years off. What kind of job did you expect her to get? One that would cash flow college?? Honestly, if you wanted her back at work, it would be better for her to never jump off the ladder.[/quote]
