[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 888798, member: 14661"] My wife and I both had ample opertunities to go to college and we both turned them down. We started a family fairly young instead and I went to work... I never looked back... She did once or twice but what she saw was that we were reliant on each other as a young family should be. My success is dependant on her and hers on mine. We're stuck together like glue. We'd both manage if something happened to the other one(and part of my job is to make sure that she would manage better than I would) but we are forced to be a team and that builds our marriage. In my opinion, there is no higher calling for a woman (that chooses to do so) than that of being a housewife. There is no higher calling for a man than to be able to serve his family by providing enough for his wife to devote her time to the kids and home so that she doesn't HAVE to work if she chooses not to(home work is more than a full tme job). All of the "I have to be able to fend for myself just in case" is failure before you start. It's like signing a pre-nup... If you're already planning a back-door exit, why did you enter the building in the first place? Give the kid a break. He might not do it YOUR way but he may just get it done his own way and they could wind up doing quite well. If her heart is set on staying home then that's the only thing that will make her happy and therefore it's the only thing that will make HIM happy as well. [/QUOTE]
