You must have a completely different wife than me...While my husband does have to work, he is totally in the kids lives, and in on the parenting.
And honestly I am glad he works...Not that I don't miss him, but that him working shows the kids a different kind of work than Mommy does...All the examples of Mom doing laundry and such doesn't help a kid understand the money concept....nor the do your best regardless of pay topic...I could go on and on about how I feel both jobs (for self and family, and for pay) are important to understand, and very different.
Not to mention in a world where we are 'different' I need another adult voice on my side!
10-2 prolly isn't manageable, and even 6:30 -3 might not be, but if you look outside the box, and label your real priorities, you might be surprised at what you can do with the kids....Of course if your wife isn't on board, or if you aren't interested...well then never mind
