[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] +1 I make almost 3 times what my husband does, and I know a number of other women in a similar position. We are all the default parents and carry the majority of the mental load.[/quote] If these women are amenable to outsourcing gift wrapping and tree decorating and Christmas dinner preparing, they should. I outsource what I don't want on my mental load. People resist this because they [i]want[/i] to wrap gifts. Not everyone does. But it is not uncommon.[/quote] Or because they think about that money going toward retirement accounts or college funds.[/quote]
