Both of us couple are working but our income is just enough for our child's needs but everytime I suggest to my husband a better option to augment our financial needs he seems to discourage me in pursuing with my plan but I am afraid that we are getting older & we cannot give the simple happiness our child needs & wants. I have made up my mind to pursue with my plan to look for a good paying job but away from my family. How will I make my spouse understand? Will I ask for his blessings or I will just simply inform him & not asking for his approval. I really need your help on this one.

good thing there is both of you have income and with only one child to feed and something. very far with my situation, i only work for the family of 6 kids and my salary? how could you imagine a government employee raising more than two kids? if you are a department head, maybe, you could survive and have an extravagant life, but with simple clerk? i guess you should talk and discuss everything before you go on with your plan.

I suggest you talk things through. Clear to him that it's just not his decision anymore but both of you makes decisions for the family. It has to be like that. If it goes like it's only him that makes the decisions then it's only him that matters. I hope you see where i'm coming from.

Do you mean away during the day or like moving away from them because I think that makes a really big difference.
