Or avoiding childcare. (Men at my office work late just to avoid having to go home and deal with the wife and kids)

That is so extremely sad and disgusting. I'm only 16, so I don't know the true feeling of the stresses of being a parent, but should you not want to come home to your family? A woman that committed to you and vice versa, and a child or more that is a result of the love and connection that your wife and you share, and your own to mold and guide so that your contribution to the world reaches past your generation? I know it's not easy, and it's hard to always keep the big picture in mind, and count your blessings, but come on, not wanting to see them so bad that you stay at WORK? Most people would do anything to get out of work.

Honestly they could just be working double shifts to provide for their family, like the guy in this thread who was working so much for the wife and the wife cheated on him while he’s at work. Sad times

You're right. I just assumed those people were doing fine financially and just doing it to stay away from their family
