Great advice there from Calibri TLEE...food for thought.
I certainly wouldn't go there with the...I worked so hard & did it all for you etc..
My H has said some of this, but it was often his choice to take on challenging schedules etc. I would prefer that he hadn't, and spent more time at home.
Also, be careful with the 'I know what you should do' - I'm sure your W can sort herself out without the advice.
