    Let her. Just don’t get involved yourself. This gives you “I told you so” rights when she comes home exhaustipated and emotionally vulnerable. However, you may not wish to exercise those rights in the interests of family harmony.

    Best if she discovers for herself that you can only help those who want to be helped. Let this one slide past without getting yourself involved I think. Just have some comfort for her ready when she gets back. Maybe cook dinner and do all the kid things while she’s busy elsewhere.

      This is the latest in a long line of “I say this is a bad idea, Mrs Break says “yes” then does EXACTLY the bad idea thing”. Think we’re gonna have a sit down conversation about this. She’s absolutely entitled to do whatever the hell she wants, but each time makes it a little bit tougher to trust her judgement.

        It’s really important you don’t make her feel bad or stupid, you have to keep her trusting you. Don’t let the situation get to a place where she starts doing things in secret.
