Husband Career Help
SAHM to a 2.5 year old and 6 month old. Former STEM career. We live off my husband’s teacher salary now. He is a hard worker- works after school and summer school, but we don’t have much disposable income. It is sustainable now but not long term.
He has talked many times about looking for a new job. He mentions he is burnt out in the school system. But he hasn’t applied to anything. Tonight he said “You wish I made more money” to which I responded “Don’t you?” I want to be supportive of his teaching career, but he will also mention things about homeschooling and us building a house at some point. Neither of this could be done only on his current income. He has always been the dreamer while I am the realist.
I’m just confused on how to support him in his career while also expressing my desire of him to try something else in a non-degrading way.
