[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Men are expected to work the same hours as colleagues. Women can switch stuff around. May not be fair, or ideal, but that's how it goes. Good thing he gets it, hopefully his career will stay on track.[/quote]

Maybe for dinosaurs like you. This simply isn't true anymore. [/quote]

Expectations only exist until they don't. Just change it. Especially if you are a MAN. [/quote]

OP will rue this position. If she insists her DH keep moving meetings and leaving early, his career will backslide and she will end up as the breadwinner.  I have never met a happy breadwinner DW — they regret the time lost with their kids, the pressure to work while all the other class moms are doing parties and coffee after drop off. It’s lonely and stressful.

Just how the world works — even today any man who is a family man over a career man are looked as lazy and not committed. [/quote]

Spare us the gender bullsh*t. They are equal earners, like many/most families these days. The DH is declaring ahead of time that he will not be flexible and his job is more important than OP’s. That’s not fair when they are equal earners. [/quote]
