[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Common problem.

Most husbands I know lose respect for their wives that don't work once the kids are in school 6.5 hours per day-5 days/week.

I WAH so I'm lucky to be there before and after school.  DH makes a very big salary--but the power would shift if I gave up my job.  This is something I knew from day 1. I know I would also be depressed Igbo didn't work.

Plus--working gets me out of shit I hate doing. When I complained about being stressed DH tells me to outsource more. We just started having cleaning lady every week (dreamlike!) and healthy dinner delivery service.

If I didn't work he'd expect me to do all household chores since I'd have 6.5 hours a day free.

I think it's a pretty shallow relationship if you "lose respect" for your spouse and parent to your children based on their work

Not shallow when the kids are in school ALL day.  6.5 hours is a long time to sit around doing nothing and then to bitch and moan at him when he comes through the door.

A lot of men go for female co-workers.  They find then more stimulating.
