[quote=Anonymous]OP, you missed the point of the article. You gloss over the part where one spouse works part-time, but that is a huge element. It sounds like your family is stretched way too thin. Your husband works a full-time job that makes good money, and he already handles a ton of childcare. He deserves rest. You sound like the kind of person who doesn’t need/understand rest. I feel like your ideal arrangement is for you both to stay up past midnight every night handling everything that needs to be done in the house. That sounds unsustainable and miserable. You need to either have a real part-time or SAH spouse, or you need to lean out a little yourself.[/quote]
