My wife wanted to do the same thing as yours and return home for financial reasons. I thought long and hard about it and decided that she would not get to understand the real financial issues that are part of her choice if I allowed it. So I said no and she said I was being selfish and not thinking about the kids. I have actually begun pulling back more and not picking up expenses totally, but instead demanding that she pay 50% where the kids are involved. Right now she is getting angry and such because she is not getting her way. Either she will wake up or not, but at least I am setting boundaries.
You need to consider whether you can set financial boundaries if she return or don't allow it.
