[quote=Anonymous]At times, I've felt like my wife had some object permanence issues with me and my contributions. Intellectually, she knew that when I was away from the house, I was working and it was that work that allowed her to buy stuff. But on a deeper, fundamental level, she didn't really seem to *feel* that. What she felt was that she was doing work without me during the day and, so, when I got home, it was time for me to do work that had an observable, direct benefit for her and the family. And, it probably went both ways; with the exception being that I couldn't stick her with my out of the house work when I came home - she could expect that I'd do some of the in-house work at that time. When the kids hit school age, she started her own business from home that adds 10-15% to our household income. That's good for everyone. [/quote]
