[quote=Anonymous]OP, you need to find a job that will at a minimum, cover the cost of daycare if you want time for yourself. You see all of that time your husband has to himself? He's using it to make a living to keep a roof over your heads.

You need to go back to work. I swear, if you don't, your marriage will collapse. You will continue to complaint, be resentful. He will be resentful that you are bitching and don't see the sacrifice he's making. Someone will either step out (and into the arms of someone who gives a modicum of a damn) or you will just collapse into a heap of bitterness that will culminate in a divorce the second that kid goes to college.

Or your husband will die and will you need to find a job anyway.

So do yourself a  favor. Find a job that covers the costs of daycare (or at least contributes substantially to it). Carry the health benefits (crap non-profits tend to have better plans anyway).

Or just continue complaining. You won't get anywhere but a horrible place. I've seen this happen to friends, repeatedly. I'm a bit older and am in the sundown years of raising kids and it just is heartbreaking to see what a lack of perspective does to a life. [/quote]
