    I will not bash your husband our men are ususally the way they are because we allowed them to be. And when we want to change it we realize we created a monster.

    So lets make this as easy as possible for him so you can get what you need.

    Lets start with dinner earlier in the week pre cook a meal and this way you can freeze it and that will cut out cooking. I don't know what time you get home from work but let your kids know that they have to take a bath at 6:30 and put their pajamas on. They don't have to go to bed but be ready. Then the only thing your husband has to do is have them brush their teeth and put them to bed.

    Regardless of the reason you are doing this you seem to be a very hard worker and your husband should give you that one thing talk to him good luck

    hey there... you've already got great advice and hopefully this will work out for you. :flowerforyou: I just wanted to add that people (including husbands lol) will rise to the bar that you set for them. So say that you're going to take this class, he's going to be home w/ the kids and you're going to do X, Y, and Z to make it easier for him. Maybe laying out the kids nightclothes, or setting them up with a special movie or something so they're "handled" for the two hours you're gone. It doesn't need to be argumentative, you don't even have to raise your voice. Just let him know this is what's happening and how it's all going to go down. i wouldn't even get into "why" you have to go. You are an adult, you made a plan and the necessary arrangements, and off you go. GOOD LUCK to you and let us know what happens!!:wink:
