[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I could never disrespect my husband like some of you do.  [/quote]

That's because you're husband is probably loaded.[/quote]

Not hardly. I love him rich or poor. He is my rock.[/quote]

I guarantee if he were truly broke you would quickly grow tired of him.  There is nothing fun about struggling. A large portion of marriages end due to finances so I'd say a lot of women actually feel the same as the Op. [/quote]

As women who want to bear children we have a lot of responsibilities and are under a lot of physical, emotional and intellectual stress during these years. The least we can do to try to help our situation some, is by ending up with a spouse that can provide a solid financial foundation to soften the blows of the child rearing years. It is VERY HARD to be a mother AND be a breadwinner. Now, if a woman ONLY wants to devote her time to climbing the career ladder, then this argument is irrelevant.

Um, there's a world of difference between wanting a husband to have a solid financial foundation and "soften the blow" and wanting a husband who makes enough to fund a lifestyle that includes private school and an open-ended stint as a SAHM.

It sounds like OP's husband works and makes a reasonable amount of money.  It doesn't sound like it's all on OP to be the breadwinner.  It sounds like OP is lamenting her husband not making more money so that she can live an upper class life.  [/quote]
