Am I thick or does anyone else not get a good sense of exactly why the husband is 'shutting her down'. Once again I feel as though I am getting only one side of the story (there are always two!).
I think LW needs to understand better why her husband is against this so that she is in a bettter position to discuss it. Is it money, is he worried about who will care for the kids, can he not articulate his position (suggesting an insecurity of some sort)?
Who will take care of the kids, who will pay for school, how will it affect their life as thay now know it?
I can see there might be two valid sides to this but I feel I am missing pieces of the puzzle.
