    Well my Mum doesn't work and my Dad does. It isn't a problem as they aren't short of money. It is their money as they are in a partnership.

    My OH is going to be a house husband (I am the main bread winner).

    Well, it obviously works for your mum & dad which is great.

    As for your OH becoming a house husband - i'm assuming you're pregnant or have just had a baby. Its totally different. Babies are a full-time job, lol. But when your baby is 13 and at school full-time, will you not be expecting your husband to go back to work?

    As much as I love my babies, its nice to have a bit of adult contact every now and then.

    Sorry not sure what you mean by that.

    He earns less than me, therefore he gives up work to look after house/children. He is happy with this as am I (I am a career woman).

    where does this school 'full time' idea come from. All the OP has said is the child is 13. For all we know the 13 year old CHILD may have issues.

    Anyway school here is 9am to 12:15 and 13:15 to 15:30. I would say there are very few jobs, if any, that would fit in with these hours.

    Not to mention if the OP if for real, which I doubt then his wife would be far better off divorcing him taking half the house, claiming benefits and taking him for maintanence. I'm guessing he would then be alot worse off than he is now.

    If you are trying to suggest he should only get a wife who earns less than him, or that he should provide for his family, get over it!
    Unlike some I would not be happy with some arrogant man "allowing" me £10 a week.
