[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DW is a SAHM. She had a career as a lawyer before the kids came. Life became to hectic for us to both be big law partners so she gave hers up. [b]I am grateful for her sacrafice in the shared goal of raising our family.[/b] So, no - I wouldn't care if my DW had a career. But I want a woman that can hold an intelligent conversation. Educated and smart, yes, career, indifferent.[/quote] So many guys *say* this, but what do you actually DO to show that you appreciate the sacrifice? Have you been supportive of her keeping a toe in the water? Are you able to help set up childcare? Willing to work from home if she needs to spend one day out? Take the kids to appointments? Deal with contractors or home repairs? If she asked for a post-nup to assure her financial well being in the case of divorce, what would you say? Have you been contributing to her own retirement account while you continue to work full-time?[/quote]
