[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I side with your husband. He works so it is his money to control. Put the kids in daycare and get a job of your own to support your adult son. [/quote] Marriage is a partnership and regardless of the incomer earner it is family/household money. If she is not a high earner, it will cost her far more to put two kids in day care than it would for him to give $100-200 a month.[/quote] Many of my guy friends resent that their wives are low earners precisely because they insisted on stepping out of the job market when the kids were born and never really made an effort to stay competitive. So yeah, 8 years later they can only make $28k a year and conveniently for them, it doesn't make sense to ever really go back to work. The DHs are pissed with this outcome but are kind of stuck now.
