anandiyer··on The Work-Family Imbalance
According to Gilbert, the unhappiness seems to stem from differing parenting styles, constant chaos and our inability to adapt and deal with the change (kinda like what you are saying). That said, have you seen this TED talk: http://www.ted.com/talks/bruce_feiler_agile_programming_for_...

Might be worth piloting to see if you can learn and iterate towards a happier life with your spouse?

anandiyer··on Ask HN: Should I get a master's degree or a job?
I don't want to date myself (and so I won't ;) but I too was contemplating the same thing when I graduated (after getting a bachelor's in Computer Eng). In hindsight, passing on getting an MS in CmpE (or CS) was absolutely the right thing to do - nothing beats on the job experience.

However an MBA is a different story. Getting an MBA at a good school can be extremely expensive and only you can decide if the opportunity cost is worth it. I have several friends who wanted to switch careers after spending a few years in technology and used an MBA to make that leap. But even they will tell you today that you don't need to spend 2 years and $150K to make that happen.

Hope that helps.
