[quote=Anonymous]This reads to me less like an ultimatum and more of him saying hey, you put your career on mommy track for years but now that my work schedule has shifted, you are free to push forward, I can handle things at home. The real issue OP is that you aren’t attracted to a SAHD type spouse. There’s no way to avoid a frank conversation with him where you make that clear while also acknowledging that he does indeed bring home an income…you can’t forget about that part, OP. If it’s important to you that both parents work, say that. If finances are becoming an issue, come up with a game to plan. If it’s important that you take on a chunk of parental tasks like doctor appointments and carpools, say so. And if you want him to engage more with the family, giving up tv time and golf outings, then say that too. None of us can do this for you.[/quote]
