‘But they’re your children too’: A Stay-at-home-mom Wishes to Rejoin the Workforce, Her Husband Insists the Childcare Costs Come Out Of Her Salary Alone

Welcome internet goers, today's topic is about the infamous and scandalous dynamic between a husband and his wife in child rearing. When it comes to raising children, even though it's 2024 there can still be a lot of traditional views about this subject. Men may want to be the breadwinner, and want their wives to be the caretaker and housekeeper. In some families it's expected that they'll both raise the children and work a full time job, but that's a different story. 

It's expected that both the woman and the man should have the right to work if they please, as well as raise young children. Child rearing is a two way street, both parents should put equal effort into raising the children, even if it looks like different things. In this particular piece, the man tries to maneuver his way so that either his wife stays a housewife (much to her dismay), or she has to pay for childcare out of her salary, not to split it. Talk about husband of the year, huh.
