[quote=Anonymous]So, AS ALMOST ALWAYS, the real problem isn’t the kid, it’s the man baby husband. So reading that post $20k in debt isn’t that bad. It’s bad but a lot of people are far, FAR worse off. Put your kid in full time day care, not just a 9-1 preschool. That way he’ll have before and after care. Are you trying to WFH now with your kid around from 1-whenever? That’s unsustainable and your kid is probably bored. At a full day program, he won’t be bored. He’ll be around other kids to entertain him and keep him company and it will be good for both of you. I assume next school year he will be in K? If so, remember that the full day care will just be one year, then he’ll be in school and if you need before/after care it will be cheaper. I would not bother running that past your husband, because he seems checked out and oblivious. I would just research a new place and do it. Then lean into your career so that in a few years you can leave him. Don’t assume he would want 50-50 physical custody either. Men like that are usually perfectly fine with every other weekend and a few weeks in the summer. You won’t get much in the way of child support, but you will get some. And if you are in a good spot with your career and can be frugal, which it sounds like you can be, you can certainly manage. [/quote]
