RE: Cathy47 That anger is based in some sort of fear.
Paul, almost everyoue in the airline industry is under pressure. What does your W feel about her job, its stability, and other employment feelings.

BB worked with a lady that vented about her H at work. This affected BB as she would come home ald let me have part of what she heard at work. BTW this co-worker treated her H well in real life.

Is your W comparing what she sees other workers have to what you two have. BB does this, comparing what the neighbors have. I have to tell BB everything we have is paid for, I suppose the neighbors have tons of loans to have so much.

You know no one wins in a comparison situation. You never know all the facts.

About a Japaneese counselor, sounds like that would be good if you lived in Japan. You don't. Your Kids don't. Maybe your W does part time. Sounds like a sticky wicket.
