Its important that children get the love and care need but then you have to factor in the econmic issues in the country.If the lady earns 400% more than the husband i'll advice that the husband and wife have a serious one on one talk of the realities facing them.then again how old are the children? even at that i still believe that they both don't need to resign.Think outside the box an you'll be surprised with the solution you can come up with.all the best. therapistmrs..com |

menix: when the boss becomes sick which also includes financial sickness then the helper steps in. The boss will recover someday and continue with his leadership. The helper was created for moments like this and it is temporary. 1 Like |

4 my advice, the wife foots the bills which is very ok. Husband working with a salary that's 1/4 of his wife's, so he should keep his job. And the issue of nanny, not all are bad. There are good people doing that job and things like this are always very sensitive, but u have to try one. There are day care everywhere now and i think the day care would be ur best choice. 1 Like |

harry509: Sure day care would be ideal if they come in on time, but parents who come in by 11pm, will the Day care be open till then nd most importantly kids need parental grooming. How would u feel taking ur child to day care, on getting there he/she calls out on a staff Daddy... |

There's surely not just two ways of settling this, there is bound to be a third option or a workaround. |

Husband and wife, keep ur jobs but the nanny is a good idea, or beta still day care is advantagous |

* If the wife resigns there's going to be a big drop in the family income. * If the man does the same thing the effect will be infinitesimal but it's going to give rise to another problem. this is Africa , a land where men are expected to head the family in all ramification (financially especially) so if the man resigns sooner or later he may start questioning his place and role in the family. *My take is that they should save up and start up a family business that will employ either the wife or the husband, at least the kids will get more time when one parent is not working for someone . Edited: no mind my mistakes ooooo |

Let's assume the wife's work isn't banking as continuity is not guranteed these days. But if it's a job that she's sure of, they can set up a business the man will be managing, be the manager of his own time. By that, he can help. As the business progresses, the wife can join. No job should be permanent, except Govt work. My opinion, anyway. |

Yes, the man should be a househusband till he gets a good job. Men and their fragile egos, if it was the other way round it wouldn't have been a topic for debate. |

The man should resign. He will help manage the income the wife is bringing in and from there they can start their own business which he will manage until she retires and joins him. |

I don't think àny of them should resign, because money is needed to maintain a happy family. Since they both come back home late, that means they both work very far from home. I suggest they should relocate and rent a house very close to the wife's workplace so that she can get back home after work within 30mins maximum. So doing, they both retain their jobs and income and the children will have motherly care while the husband will have to make up for his own care on weekends fully dedicated to his family 1 Like |

Every mother's dream is to take care of her children...in this case i think it should take the normal protocol: The man should provide, while the wife sacrifices for the betterment of the family and the children most especially for where there is love, SACRIFICE is easy... Let them take the natural law into consideration and leave this money ish...period! NB: We know were it landed us when a woman was given that responsibility to take care of things in the Garden of Eden... Neither God nor Man rested 1 Like |

cococandy: Relegating a man to House-husband(i.e being useful at home according to you) is more like contradicting Ephesians 5vs 23.. Virtually all Nairalanders re fond of this Advice " start a business".. We need to know, not everyone is business oriented. 2 Likes |

It is the duty of the man to provide for the family. The man MUST NEVER agree to resign. Woman,being what they are will always abuse the arrangements. |
