Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

What kind of a pathetic twat will need his wife's permission to financially support his family.

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

Yup, any man who is expected to communicate and be nice to his wife is a pathetic twat according to the guys on this forum

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

Do you remember the thread from many months ago where the wife worked full-time to pay for all the household expenses and mortgage, while her husband sent back all of his money so he could pay for his sisters' cellphones, nieces/nephews tuition and servants for the guy's family? Her husband felt it was his duty to pay for his family's luxuries, while his wife was unwell and wanted to leave her job but couldn't because her husband refused to financially support his wife and kids.

THAT'S the sort of guy who needs permission before he financially supports his siblings and parents.

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

To be fair both sides do this..

As an example my mum used to criticise my SIL for things that she would ignore/let go if it was our own family members involved..

I have seen MILs criticise DILs for not doing enough housework whilst their own kids sit on their backsides all day and don't even offer to help..

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

If her financial needs are being met properly and all her expenses are paid for, WHY does she need to approve her husband's statement of expenses every month?

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

Pffft yeah, sounds proper legit, and definitely represents the majority.

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

Because a good husband does nothing without his wife's approval...ooops..not approval its..'communication and sharing' :D

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

I dont' see any woman saying she has to "approve" it but the dude should know his responsibilities and that includes knowing what is necessary for his family.

Personally, I don't care if he sends money to his mother, its none of my business.

But I also know that our bills are paid on time, we have savings, we eat well mA etc.

I know exactly how much he makes, how much our bills are etc. And I also know that he's not about to blow 6 months of rent on buying a gold set for someone.

This wouldn't be the case if we didn't (now get your epi pen ready cz it seems like most of yall are allergic to these words) *communicate and know each other.

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

You do know that communicating and sharing with your wife an d just being nice to her won't make your testicles disappear.....right?

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

as long as its only communication and being nice…the words as defined in the engish dictionary

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

Hmmmmm nops, if he's taking care of me and his kids well and all our legitimate needs then I really don't care what he does with the rest of his money. It's his to begin with, surely I have rights on his money but so does the rest of his family

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

I think if the man is the only employed one in the family then he should not need consent. If both are employed, I don't really think you need a consent to spend money, but I think it should be made aware of. You know if you lend a person money or buy a gift for someone, I think it should be made aware of to your spouse. When two people are bringing in the income, all think all finances should be open, especially if you share a joint bank account. It is actually pretty smart, that way you can keep your ledger current. (If you share a checking account)

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

when a woman is making money she says "this is my money and i use it wherever i want". So why a guy cant do the same ?

Sara516 · May 30, 2011, 11:13am

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

Well if she's working only to keep busy and make extra money for savings or luxuries while the husband's job supports the family....then why can't she do that?

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

so in your view....

does a guy need to have consent of his wife before talking to their parents on phone? ...... may be he need a consent before breathing or may be....

so in your view

Re: To ladies..husband supporting his family

I'm not sure why any woman would object to her husband supporting his parents through his income provided he's paying for the household expenses.
