    Need A Career

    Thank you very much. I am learning to lean on the Lord more and more each day. Like you said, we want for much, but our needs are taken care of. There are more needs as things get harder, but I am trusting God to come through. I have yet to find a job, so your prayers are very much needed and...

    Need advice/understanding.

    I want to thank you all for taking the time to respond to my last week's post. As a token of my appreciation, you need to know that I feel a lot better about my husband's decision about school. I will always wish and encourage him to do his best at all times, but with your input, I understand...

    Great points. He has told me why he doesn't like school. He didn't do well because of work schedules, so he picked work over school in the end. Right now, he believes it is a financial responsibility that we can't handle. I agree. my problem was that he didn't do any research to see what his...

    Some more clarification for all, I love my husband and do not plan to leave him for something like this. That's why, if you thoroughly read my original post, you will see that I made sure you all knew he is a wonderful husband and father. I posted my concerns because I needed them out and...

    Stan, your response was very comforting and detailed. Thank you for truly taking the time to read my post and the time in giving advice. God bless. I think I am realizing with all these posts, especially yours, outside of my desire for hubby to further his career, I wouldn't trade him for a...

    Need advice/understanding.

    Thank you for your thoughts. every once in a while, I do stop and decide to encourage him for working in spite of the fact that he doesn't really care about the job and its demands. I let him know that I appreciate his strength in getting up and making sure he's at work early to get started...

    Where I am is in Maryland, United states of America. I permanently reside in the country, I'm just not a citizen yet. I've lived in this country and Maryland longer than anywhere else. The length of stay at a parents' home is entirely up to the parents and the children involved. We intended for...

    his parents are rare and unspeakably the greatest in-laws i've ever known. If it were up to them, we could live with them forever if we wanted; we just know better. We are taking care of our bills and helping with food and cooking, but nothing else financially. I'd like for things to pick up so...

    His parents and him do have a great relationship. I will agree with you in that he stays away from travel jobs, long distance jobs, and if he can help it, night and weekend jobs because he wants to be home with us. He loves our children very much, but will not stay home with 3 of them by...

    I am a british citizen, but grew up in Nigeria. I have lived in this country for 15 years, so i'm aware the culture here is quite different. I also noticed that everyone, no matter what you are, has to work for every penny - nothing is free.

    If I contradict myself, it was because I had so much to say and needed to let it out. Yes, we have talked about certificates, degrees, etc. It's more about what will take less time and get him what he needs. Also, I don't plan on going to school without financial help that I don't have to pay...

    Thank you for your support, I like the apprenticeship idea. Do they have any in computers? he's a big fan and already has a great amount of knowledge and some skills. he is the go-to guy in this house for anything technical. Does he need to pay for this? In regards to living situation, we were...

    Luther, thanks for your very brutal, but thoughtful opinions. First, let me make something clear, I have not been or ever nagged at my husband. Second, I am not sitting home expecting my husband to work while I spend the money. third, If i thought that a degree would bring millions into our...

    Good questions. He doesn't seem to be worried or bothered by me doing well educationally or career wise. In fact, he would hold my hands along the way. It would be nice if we are in it together. I'll think of your ideas and questions. thank you.
