[quote=Anonymous]OP. "Well, does your mother point out constantly to your husband how lucky he is to have a wife who shares in the financial responsibilities?" Haha, not at all. My parents praise my husband for marrying me. So I get how wonderful he is from both ends. (And he is truly wonderful, it just doesn't make me lucky.) "OP, I'm with you. If my MIL said that, I would say, "well, if he didn't help, I wouldn't be with him. We both work. We're a team, 50/50." Thank you for commiserating. I actually told my MIL that I was not "lucky" because he is doing his 1/2 of the parenting. As much as I wanted to throw my financial contribution in her face, I just explained I wouldn't have had a child with someone who didn't really want to be a dad. Having a child wasn't and end all be all for me, and that if he didn't show interest in being 50/50 then it was never going to happen.[/quote]
