Input: TL;DR at the bottom. My husband (43M) graduated college with a degree in journalism many years ago. He worked at the same paper as a reporter for over ten years, and was fired without warning or explanation about a year and a half ago.

Originally I was supportive, but six months after he was fired he still hadn’t found a job, anywhere. He was set on finding another job as a reporter even though it’s a dying industry, not looking at other fields. I had been gently asking him to look at other careers, but he refused as his experience and background are in journalism. I set him up with a life coach through my insurance to help support his job hunt, helped him with writing/rewriting his resume and cover letter, and encouraged him to go to a therapist since he was extremely depressed about being fired (he said he didn’t need to).

As his unemployment was ending and he still didn’t have a job, I gave him an ultimatum- find something, anything, or move out.

He found a slightly better than minimum wage job, which left me still covering the majority of the bills and anything for our ten year old son. After much fighting about his job, he decided he wanted to take the LSAT and go to law school. 

I supported him in taking the LSAT, offered to get him a tutor, bought books and practice tests, and took our son out of the house on Sundays so he could take practice exams. His LSAT score was mediocre. 

I told him I only supported him going to law school if it didn’t put us in a ton of debt. He’s received an acceptance and partial scholarship to one school, but it would still cost over $100k to attend. 

I have straight up told him I don’t support this. Unemployment for lawyers is extremely high, and that, combined with the debt we’d take on to do this, seems to make this an unreasonable career prospect at his age. I’d also like to be able to pay for my son to go to college, and with the timing and debt we’d take on for law school, doesn’t seem feasible to me (my husband says it does).

I’ve told him I’m not opposed to him going back to school for a new career, but it needs to have better prospects than being a lawyer. He says this is the only thing he’s interested in and has any skill in, that he’s finally found something he’s excited about and wants to do.

In another fight about this today, he told me everyone except for me is on board with this- his parents, his friends that are lawyers and judges. AITA for not supporting him?

TL; DR: My 43 year-old husband wants to go to law school to start a new career. I want him to choose a more realistic/less costly field. He says everyone except me supports this idea. AITA?
