[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Since SAHMs are so lowly to you, perhaps you WOH because the work of SAHM and the child care providers you love and defend so dearly is beneath you. snooty, snooty, snooty.... " In part, yes. Another key reason is that my working allows me to tell DH to go jump in a lake. My mother, and my grandmother before her, were frustrated at times with their lack of "hand" in their marriages. My DH can't make any decisions without my concurrence, because I make more than half the money. He can't just come home one day and say the family is moving because he took a new job. He can't make major purchases without my say so. We have a real partnership, not based on benevolence or emotion.[/quote] I also find this post troubling. I am sorry that your marriage is based on the fact that you bring home a paycheck and can hold it over your husband. I'd also be curious to see where your marriage is in 10+ years. [/quote]
