[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lay out the budget and show her that there's a shortage and that you're living very tight. Maybe then she'll get the picture [/quote] This, but not exactly. Stop telling your wife anything. Lay out the budget. Lead her to (better yet, just let her see) the shortfall. Discuss the shortfall. "What should we do about this shortfall, DW?" Don't give any potential solutions. She's not thinking of solutions because you are giving her solutions (basically your position--get back to work) so just present her with the problem. Right now, you give solution-->she nixes the solution.[/quote] I doubt OP would be happy if there was a spend less solution.[/quote] Why should he have to spend less if she's not contributing financially?
