[quote=Anonymous]All of our accounts are joint as well. We never fight about money, largely because we happen to have the same opinions on spending and saving. Someone else already mentioned this but I think being open about the arrangement is the key, whatever approach you take. My mother used to hide an account from my stepfather to pay for things he thought weren't important--mostly things for her children (we're not his so why would he care if we have music lessons or get to go to prom). In that case I think it undermined their marriage because they already weren't on the same page about finances. To the OP, I don't think you should feel bad about not having a separate account. It's not really your mom's business, it's between you and your husband. [/quote]
