Rather than leave young kids and all night, why not take shorter breaks regularly? Your husband needs to keep his ass home, if you want my real opinion. He has no business going out three nights a week with everything else going on. Or he should take you out for a couple of hours. I’d have been miserable being away from my babies overnight, but of course you need a bit of relaxation. It’s your husband’s responsibility to provide that for you, as they’re his kids, too. Just my opinion. He needs a stern talking-to!
