[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't say I'd react well, but I also don't make nearly what your husband does (six figures, but not close to his numbers). However, I was pretty upfront that I was not the sort of husband who wanted to be a sole support to my wife, that I wanted a two income household, etc. I'd be pretty annoyed if my wife decided she didn't want to work anymore, [b]without any really good reason,[/b] which I haven't seen you give.[/quote] I want to spend time with my child? That's not a good enough reason? [/quote] Not really, no. Your husband could say the same thing but I guarantee you'd feel much differently about the situation if [i]he[/i] wanted to stay home. Changing your mind out of the blue breaks the contract you agreed to when you got together. Focus changes, not entire priorities.[/quote]
