My wife and I have been happily married for about 6 years. We recently had a baby, and now she's suddenly saying that being a stay-at-home mom is her primary goal in life. She's acting like it's essential to her happiness. I never knew it was this important to her when we were dating or even after we got married, but once the baby came along, she's completely focused on him and doesn't want anything to do with work or anything else.
It's never been my dream to have a stay-at-home wife, and we never planned for this. In fact, I helped support her while she got her Master's degree, because we were planning on her always working. But when the baby came along, she wants to spend 100% of her time with him and she cries when she thinks about going back to work.
I also didn't know this would be an issue back when we were looking at houses, or we wouldn't have got such an expensive house. I don't earn enough to pay for the house, cars, groceries, etc on just my income.
