[quote=Anonymous]I think two things are happening: 1) Most (not all!) couples I know, the husband makes more than the wife, so his income is the priority in maintaining the family’s lifestyle. 2) A lot of people don’t give much thought to childcare until the children are actually there. This is especially true of men. It can become a very frustrating situation for both halves of the couple if the wife is pregnant and they have to make a childcare plan when they don’t agree. If the husband doesn’t want daycare but can’t afford to leave his job it can feel really crappy. As with most things, this is a communication problem. (Of course, I’m assuming we’re talking normal couples where this is a difference of opinion and not as a means to control and abuse others.) [/quote]
