Ok Puppy I don't understand your, "Except for"??????, coment please elaborate.
I was referring to the comment that such a living arrangement doesn't work for anyone "except for" the kids. To me, they are EVERYTHING, and I think there is virtue in sublimating our own needs and desires -- at least for awhile, to the extent that we can and still stay emotionally healthy -- to those of our children.
Sorry for being so cryptic; I was trying to make a point.
