[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: quit your job and be a house husband. Maybe get a part-time job doing something you enjoy. Your wife and earn the money and pay all the bills for a change. [/quote]

We wouldn't be able to pay the mortgage. As I said, my job pays the bills. She works to have a life outside of the house. She does help with [b]expenses such as sports, tutoring, gym memberships, kids clothing[/b]. [/quote]

So your kids can’t live a middle class lifestyle on your salary alone. You can’t afford for her to SAH. So get over yourself and start contributing. [/quote]

They could live on my salary alone. Some people work for other reasons, and I mentioned that she works more to get out of the house and have a life outside. [/quote]

If you can’t afford basics like clothes, and  middle-class items like tutoring and sports, then her job isn’t “to get her out of the house” it’s to support household necessities.

[/quote]

I can afford these things, but she wants to contribute. People love to argue on this forum. [/quote]

And insecure men like to treat their wives jobs as cute hobbies to justify their own laziness. Wives of high-earning men who have hobby jobs aren’t buying the clothes and paying for the kids tutors. Start treating your wife as the equal partner she is, and you start being an equal partner at home.[/quote]

What the? Guys can never win. [/quote]

Sure they can. [b]They have to equally parent the children they equally created.[/b]If they can’t do school pickup because they’re at work, that means they do Saturday morning wake up.

Guys can’t win when they assume all they have to do is exist.

Never in the history of DCUM has this phenomenon been documented.[/quote]
