[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By any measure, I have succeeded in a male dominated profession. I also am a Mom. My husband is more successful from a financial stand point but works less hours and I am still expected to do 80% of anything kid related. He resents my job, my travel and my success. How to navigate?[/quote] I do 80 percent of the kids stuff, and my wife is absolutely married to her job, working at home every night, travel, etc. Yes, I resent that many, many times it seems our relationship, and the kids, rank far behind her job. I am glad that she has work she feels passionate about, but I don't like how it consumes her life. For example, work trips frequently occur over weekends (professional conferences), and yet she feels guilty about taking a day off some other time. She is caught up in the rat race, and it's a bummer. It has definitely affected our relationship. I think in 20 years she will regret it when she realizes all she misses at home. [/quote]
