[quote=Anonymous]I'm the DW, and I think your DW sounds whiney and out of touch with what the workplace is like. If she wants vacations to Europe and fancy private preschool, then she to realize that money doesn't grow on trees. Your hours sound reasonable, and if she's only working part time, it makes sense for her to bear most of the brunt of the domestic duties. There are plenty of families where BOTH parents work the kind of hours that you work, and somehow people manage to strike a balance. Has she ever worked full time? Does she take care of bills? In this economy, you are lucky to be able to afford your lifestyle with your hours. I don't get it at all. Would it be great if the culture of the US was a little more family friendly across all sectors and we didn't as a country work such long hours? Sure. But it is what it is.[/quote]
