[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. What kind of man are you? If you can't take care of your family on 6 figures then you aren't much of a man. Heck you don't even need that much. My husband would never make me work at a job I hated. I don't care if he made 30,000 a year- he would make it work so I could be happy.

I work because I want to. If I don't want to then I will stop. My husband does not need me to take care of our family financially but he appreciates whatever I want to do. And we are not rich or wealthy.

Sounds like you should have married one of the manly women on here who are sure to come to your defense and call your wife lazy. Or maybe you should have married your paycheck.

It doesn't matter...you are still acting like a punk. [/quote]

This.

You sound like my ex-husband. And your attitude is why he is my ex-husband. I cannot fathom being married to someone who gave so little regard to his wife's desire to be home with her children for the very short amount of time that they are children (its not for everyone, but for those who want to do it) but to be FORCED to miss her babies' firsts over the matter of 1,000/month when her husband makes 150,000. I CANNOT imagine. I would, literally, never forgive you.

If she really makes 1,000 dollars a month - she can get a job making that ANY TIME. Does she have a college degree? She could make 100/day subbing in most school districts.

And I am quite sure that your wife is not telling you that she is fantasizing about lunching with the ladies (not that you'd fund such frivolity) but about being with her kids - your kids.

So glad I divorced my ex before we had any kids and married a real man. I'm home with my baby because I will never get this time back. My husband is happily paying the bills. Yes, a screaming baby can get frustrating but it is worth EVERY MINUTE. [/quote]
