[quote=Anonymous]I don't know, in my family of origin and in my marriage it's all just considered a team effort. Some people are in more lucrative career paths than others, so they help each other out. Some people have more time on their hands, so they take care of the kids or the elderly parents who need it. If someone got divorced, I expect the extended family would step in just as they have in other crises -- by helping out for a while as people get back on their feet. We give some of our collective salaries to my husband's in-laws who need it; it has never occurred to me whether that comes out of "his" money or "mine." And I feel comfortable knowing that if one of us ever needed it someone would help us out as well.[/quote]
