[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had to quit my teaching job a few years ago due to the needs of one of our children. I am a huge introvert, and being ‘on’ for our 3 young boys all day is getting to me. I read about other working parents being flexible... but my DH sequesters himself in our room working from 8:30-6. He overheard me complaining to one of my friends and got pissed. Is it really so awful that I would like to see another adult during the day? He doesn’t come down for lunch or dinner. And by the time he does, I’m starting baths and then bedtime routines. Our oldest has been going to bed around 8:30... and by then I am just done. Beyond exhausted and overwhelmed with literally zero time to even think my own thoughts.[/quote] OP, what do you do in the summer? Or for school holidays? I assume your husband isn't off all that time. So you are taking care of all three of your kids alone, yes?[/quote] She probably enjoys a lot of time in her home or at a pool or perhaps she goes to a gym. Of course, her husband would be at work all day so she wouldn’t have to make his lunch or ensure complete silence. [/quote]
