'My Husband Never Wants To Have Sex Again'
In the latest Confessions roundup, 15 parents vent about debt, going back to college, and “vacations” with kids.
Once upon a time, “vacation” might have meant packing up your carry-on, taking a breezy cab ride to the airport, hopping on a flight to someplace relaxing and tropical, and whiling away a week on the beach while drinking fruity cocktails and forgetting about your responsibilities. After kids? Not so much. You’ll be doing a ton of work to organize and pack, sweatily hauling your belongings to and fro, doling out bribes and screens like your life depends on it, and spending a ton of money in the process. This week, we have some vacation-related complaints, plus confessions about drinking, finances, husbands who don’t want sex, and more.
