Pam I am sorry, please do not take offense at this but if the shoe were on the other foot would Jack have to stay home because Jackie would miss him too much? I highly doubt it. Stop letting Jack put this doubt in your head and manipulate you.

He does not want the responsibility to be on him. He cannot handle it. Get an aide, aren't you supposed to be getting one anyway? Tell him to go to work then, in the meantime you take that position and stop letting him manipulate you!!!!!!!
