My friend and her husband both work. He has a 40 hour a week stressful corporate job and makes $85,000 plus bonuses. She works four days a week, 32 hours in the medical field and makes $40,000. Her job is fairly stress freeThey do not have children, just a dog. They agreeded when they first got married that he would care for everything outside the home and she would care for everything inside the home. He has since hired a gardener to care for their lawn. She is stuck doing all of the house cleaning, cooking, laundrey, and caring for their dog. He thinks this is fair because she has one extra day off a week and contributes less to the home financially. But, she is beginning to feel overwhelmed by this. She has tried talking to him, but he stands his ground. My questions is not, what should she do. My question is, should she have to do all of the house work since she works less and contributes less?
