[quote=Anonymous]I have gone through periods where I wished my husband earned more or had more earning potential. I was unhappy in my job, resented his free time, and wished I didn’t have to be the breadwinner AND the mom. My husband is helpful and involved, but young kids are just wired to say “mom mom mom” 1000 times a day. Ultimately I got over it. My kids are a bit older now and I have a bit of time for friends and hobbies now. I found a role at work I enjoy more. With additional seniority, I have a bit more flexibility. But ultimately I had to examine why I felt entitled for my husband to “save” me. Do male breadwinners feel that way? Probably not. I had to save myself. [/quote]
