CAN YOU DO BETTER ?
I think you can...
Ask yourself this question Brad....
What is the BEST thing for my boys ?
What they have known , since they were born is the life that you describe...
I am NOT suggesting that you give in to her here...
Just that there are small steps to take to avoid that plunge into the icy lake water....
You are still thinking that it is either all or none here...

Fig suggested story time with them in the evenings...How is that going ?
My question is....
