[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess when the OP husband is deadly sick one day he plans in calling his accountant or lawyer to do his IV. [/quote] Again, he believes nurses are underpaid and over worked — he appreciates them and feels bad for them as a class. But he wants DD to have an easier life and not have to depend on a man to afford a house where she would be comfortable living. We love our teachers too, give generously to annual funds, and feel they are underpaid. But we still send our kids to school. [/quote] I think the long-ago PP is right that this has nothing to do with money and has everything to do with your husband's class anxieties or class biases. He looks down on nurses - whatever their job, whatever their opportunities, whatever they earn - and he's trying to prevent your daughter from being someone he looks down on. It's very sad that he's behaving like this and projecting so much prejudice on your daughter. [/quote]
