[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a husband, my wife stays at home.  Kids are 3 and 6.  I have utmost respect for what she does.  Raising our kids properly is just as if not more important than what I do to make money.   Her job on some days is just as hard as mine.  I have total respect for her.  I still have a desire to have sex with her.

I should add that most of my co-workers have SAHM spouses and feel grateful we can concentrate on work due to the sacrafices of SAHM wives.[/quote]

Do you respect her need for personal time and personal money to spend?[/quote]

I wrote the previous post.  Yes, my money is her money.  I constantly reassure her to take time for herself.  I don't think I am unique.

But I will say, fair or unfair, if you are the non-bread winning spouse you do need to be cognizant of the value of a dollar.  I think some SAHMs, from what I hear, can be guilty of being at home too often and fixating on unneccesary and expensive home improvement projects without appreciating how much effort goes into earning the money in the first place.

Anyhow, not sure if that is unique to SAHM or women in general.  In any event, I totally agree with others that I could not succeed in my career without the sacrafices of my wife being at home.  It's a team effort.[/quote]

It's amazing that my DH and I have both managed to succeed in our careers without having the "sacrafices" [sic] of having a SAHP.  We take turns taking time off as necessary to handle kids and house.[/quote]
