I'm guessing your husband works for his father who is a control freak and just gives you enough to get by. I've seen this before, it's called golden hand cuffs, he pays you just enough to keep your husband from getting a real job, then he maintains all the control that he can. You guys need to write down all the pros and cons of staying in this situation against cutting the ties and finding work with another company.

Yes, you are mad at the wrong person. Why are you mad at your father in law when it's your husband who is buying the meals? It's your husband you have a problem with. Your husband needs to speak up and be a man and tell your in laws that you don't have the funds. They most likely don't have clue what your finances are like. Pizza isn't expensive, so by them saying, order a pizza, they probably thought they were being conservative. My dear, talk to your husband, he is causing these problems.

Why in the world would you and your husband allow his father to control your family's finances unless you proved yourselves unable to do so. Unless you've lost your rights to what you earn, TAKE BACK YOUR LIVES!!
