[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not a knock on moms  that choose to stay home of their own volition.

I'm talking about guys who marry a woman with a career.  Guys that get with awoman knowing her career is important to her, that she spent years getting into her position, same as he did,  that just assume she'll stay home because he doesn't like  daycare or his mom stayed home, and his brother's wife stays home, or because he makes money?

Why is it overwhelmingly the woman who is expected to sacrifice her career ,even if it's not what she wants.

To be fair, I now one dad who altered his career to stay home when his kids were small instead of ecpexting his wife, too, but why is this so rare?[/quote]

My DH thought i would SAH because he made 3x what I make (and I have a good paying career myself) and doesn’t trust paid caregivers. [/quote]

But since he is not your father, he should not be deciding for you.

I think women who marry wealthy men better confirm that they will have an equal voice in family decisions.

And I do think the more your life approximates that of a "kept woman," the fewer legs you will have to stand on.

(You can't have it both ways. Expect to be cared for like a child, expect to be treated like a child)[/quote]
