[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yikes at this thread. Never get married fellas![/quote] Yikes at this thread. Never give up your job to stay home, ladies! You need to look out for number one. [/quote] Well, the problem is, the SAHM role does not get enough respect. Think of the myriad jobs a SAHM does and consider all the people you hire to replace what a SAHM does. I sometimes feel as though the feminist movement eliminated SAHM as a choice for women in that the concept of alimony seems to have gone away. IMO this role should be a viable option for a man or a woman and it should be protected under the law. A woman or man dosesn't stay home with the kids without the consent of the other partner. That was a choice that partner also made, and the consequences of one partner out of the workforce should not be a burden only that one person has to bear.[/quote] See above what men write: you have to work at 48! As if there is an abundance of well paying jobs available to a SAHM after a long gap with employment. These men are totally self centered and disconnected from reality. If I was playing my marriage history again, I would not have stayed at home and supported his traveling career without a stone clad postnup[/quote] If you're too proud to fold towels at Kohls, that's your problem.[/quote] And this last one should be a guidance for any woman whose husband wants her to "focus on household". This is exactly what he would tell in 15 years while upgrading for a new shiny young thing!. I believe marriage is a very unsafe financial contract for women, unless you negotiate a stone clad postnup before even having babies [/quote]
