When You Want to Stay at Home with Kids But Can’t

“Because you would rather stay home with your children—which is a great desire—your work outside of the home may feel more like a ‘have to’ than a ‘want to’ or a ‘get to.’ And that sort of situation can be the breeding ground for contempt and bitterness…So, what can you do about it? I think you have two options. With God’s help, you could either change your situation or change your heart.” - TGC
