What is your notion on this ?

A good SAHW will respect her husband as long as he is working hard and trying to provide for their family. One does not have to be rich to have a good home life. Some young SAHW may have a hard time learning to live to a budget if they came from an affluent family, but if they truly love and respect their husband, they will learn and not be harsh with him while they are learning.

My notion on this is that it is quite an example of retaliatory oppression, and is terrible for the movement towards greater respect for women. I'll give the detail that your question lacks: Women can divorce men, then get the house, the children, and enough of his paycheck to give her the lifestyle she's "accustomed to," and she might never have to get a job.

Where are you getting your information? If a woman wants the same things she got from her parents she needs to make sure she marries into money. Most couples are young and just starting in life. Life married is the hardest test one will ever take. If I marry again it will be because we both share an infinity for God. I would not expect my husband to keep me accustomed to the things I had before I met him.and neither would the other women I know. It would be nice but it's not a necessity.

'Now'? Women OR men who's role is to stay at home and take care of the house and children have ALWAYS expected the other partner to provide the standard of living to which they have become accustomed. Why wouldn't they? Who's job is it to make revenue for the family to thrive upon, if not the person who's working outside the home? Sounds to me like YOU have some kind of issue about this that's making you bitter.

As a stay at home wife I perfectly agree. In my religion it's the husband's duty to provide for the wife and children.

That decisions regarding who in a couple works outside the home and who (if anyone) should be made by the couple in question.
If a couple agrees to an arrangement, it isn't anyone else's business.

You know I came to this category because I thought there would be some honest issues and that it would be a change of pace from the categories I typically answer in. All I see here though is generalizations and stereotypes. Ask a real question and I will give you a real answer.

this is not new.all the women and a few men in my life are stay at home moms/wives/husbands/fathers and the standard of living is as good or better than they had with their parents.

As long as we have a roof over our heads, food to eat, and clothes to wear, I'm satisfied.
At least it's not Cardboard Box #2 on Skid Row.
