He Asked His Wife, Who Is A Stay-At-Home Mom, To Have An Hour Of Free Time To Himself After Work Because He’s Really Burntout, But She Thinks It’s More Important For Him To Spend Time With Their Kids Before Bedtime

While he understands his wife’s perspective, though, he feels like something has got to give. In his eyes, an hour off to just do his own thing will help him not go insane.

However, his wife believes that the most important thing for him is spending time with his kids after work– not just putting them to sleep. She also claimed that they both need to make some sacrifices over the next few years, or at least their children become more independent.

“But I still haven’t budged from my request since I am in a state of burnout,” he vented.

So now, he has been left wondering if refusing to help out at home immediately after work and wanting to take an hour for himself is really so unreasonable or not.

Can you understand why he is burning out in the wake of such a demanding schedule? At the same time, does his wife have a point about spending quality time with their kids outside of just bedtime? How can they work through this situation together? What would you do?
