[quote=Anonymous]I am a sahm to an 8 month old. Since being out of work we have cut back on basically all uneccesary spending. We are by no means in the poor house but Dh has an extra part time job and has me use that money for groceries and every day expenses. He will occasionally "let" me buy a shirt or something for myself but we are talking under $30. I found a small gig that paid around $200 and thought it would be nice to have some play/spending money that I wouldn't have to feel guilty about spending. But now dh is pissed that I'm not using that money towards the bills or groceries etc. I just don't think it's fair. His arguement is that his second job goes towards the household which is true but I've never said he couldn't spend it on something for himself. I even offered to split it half and half but still that wasn't good enough. So now I have this money that I feel like a criminal for spending and am wondering who's right.

This entire thing makes me want to stick my kid in daycare so I can get a job and spend whatever the eff I want on myself but I know that's not how it works either and it would make our lives more difficult since I didn't have a high paying career before anyway. [/quote]
