I'm going thru some of the same stuff, right now. And as men, it kills us, because we want to PROVIDE, and do it well. It sucks, and it eats at your guts. But I'm also teaching my four kids how you deal with adversity -- with persistence and character -- and they have already learned things thru our financial difficulty that they could have NEVER learned from a book.

Your family needs a leader right now, and -- as you note -- it AIN'T gonna be your wife. Yes, shame on her for what she's doing, but SHAME ON YOU if you let it affect you so much that you don't lead your family thru this.

You can handle it. STRENGTH and HONOR.
