[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand this question, OP. If a DH asks his DW to go back to work, there is likely a reason. Perhaps they need the money, perhaps he think it stresses her out too much (not a good fit), perhaps he doesn't feel like she is pulling her own weight or that it is counter to his goals. When I've seen men divorce over this, it is because the DW seems to have a lack of interest or concern about the DH - she won't engage in a discussion or see his side or have empathy for the work stress he is under. Resentment builds and things turn toxic. That's very different from most of the responses here, where the SAHMs state that their DHs either don't want them to work or that they had good discussions about the best interest of their families. The fact is, even on DCUM few people have access to a trust fund + $56K a year in gifts like the PP (here DH must be pretty happy about that gravy train), so the need for a second income is very real.[/quote]
