Sorry to hear finances are tight.

If they weren't so tight, my suggestion would be to take yourself and the kids and go do some inexpensive weekend trip (go see some cheap touristy crap: zoos, caves, etc--something 200 miles or less away), and stop thinking about this for a bit. Sometimes... if you can't solve a problem that you are obsessing over, it's time to take a break from it.

And leaving your wife alone (without the kids) would give her some time to think about something else too.

I'm thinking your wife wants to try, but you need to lead, but everybody is tied up in the present struggle, and you both need a little shift in perspective.
