[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP doesn’t have to agree with his wife that private school is worth the money. He doesn’t have to do it just because she wants it and he can afford it.[/quote]

Honestly, OP - if she wants private school so much, she needs to get out, get a job, and earn substantial money toward private school. Such entitlement. [/quote]

Yeah, jeez, the entitlement of a mother wanting better education for the kids. Poor OP is going to have to work two whole years more![/quote]

Again, we have absolutely no idea if it would be better. The fact that you automatically assume it would be better is telling.

No, I don't know, and it doesn't matter what you or I know. What we do know is that OP's wife thinks it would be better. That is not "entitlement" even if she is not direclty earning the money that would pay for it.[/quote]

it's very much entitlement if she is not earning the money. So many women on this board are delusional af and this si coming from woman.

As the saying goes... "NO MONEY, NO TALK!!!!"[/quote]

Huh? As a guy with a SAH wife, I could not disagree more. My wife does a lot for everyone and deserves an equal say in how we raise the kids and spend the money. [/quote]

Equal. Not to dictate. And as someone who is doing less actual raising of the kids, I’m sure you understand you give up some say in that domain. I would not command my H to work more years for something if we didn’t agree. It would be a discussion, taking into account that this affects him more than me.[/quote]

She would like kids in private.  They can afford it.  It impacts her way more than him as she has to do all the applications, transportation and much more.  He probably doesn't get involved at all in the kids needs or activities but wants to dictate everything.  He's a jerk.

When I approached my husband about private years ago as our child needed smaller classes, he said to find one that I liked and he'll figure out how to pay for it (it was more affordable so not an issue).  Recently I approached him again with covid, he said no problem, he'll figure out the money (we are not high income but could make it work via savings).  (in the past I also wanted it and he said find a school as well but children and I didn't like the schools and kids wanted public).

OP is a jerk.[/quote]
