[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. You sound quite bratty. [/quote]

I agree...bratty and entitled....you are assuming that your husband wants to rely on your parent's death and your eventual inheritance as a type of financial comfort. Maybe your husband doesn't want the responsibility of being the sole breadwinner on his shoulders, maybe he doesn't want to lose the security that your salary brings for your OWN nuclear family regardless of your familial wealth. Maybe his upbringing was different from yours regarding savings, spending, and cash flow in. All valid reasons for you not to up and quit your job without him being comfortable with it. It IS possible to have two children and work. Hire a nanny, bring in an au pair, plenty of folks do it every day. [/quote]

You guys sound jealous.  Really someone who is going to inherit millions of dollars should stick their kid in daycare?  [/quote]

No one said daycare....au pair, nanny. Neither of those equate to daycare (and there is also NOTHING wrong with daycare but this isn't about that- it's about a culturally repressed woman defending quitting her job when her husband isn't comfortable with it)[/quote]

I’m shocked you don’t view it as a culturally repressed male demanding another child AND his wife to continue working.  [/quote]
