[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents both put kids first, and my mom totally dominated  my dad, who agreed with her on major things. She stayed at home and he went to work, but she was in charge of the budget.
I got married to a guy who seemed similar to my dad but turned out to be dominating and almost abusive when I had a baby and became dependent on him. So, my guess about him was wrong and most probably we will divorce.
My brother married a woman who is the opposite of my mother- has very little maternal instinct in her, is career oriented, etc. It works for him because he is used to a model where the wife doesn't "take care" or the husband, and where the husband is a good dad. It seems to work for them, though he is a total pushover, she makes him pay for everything until he has very little disposable income left, and spends most of her income on her relatives, her beauty stuff and clothing and such.

How are you so in your brother's business that you know how paychecks are spent in his household? Weird.[/quote]
