Health, unless a husband is willing to share 1/2 the responsibilities in the home he should never expect his wife to share half of the responsibilities in regard to the finances. If they share they should share everything. A husband cannot and should not expect their wives to be superwomen who can and should do it all. This unfortunately is the case in most situations and although there are many men here on this blog who are very caring and appreciative of their wives, it is not the norm.
Furthermore, when you try to do it all something eventually has got to give and in many cases that ends in depression, crashing in some way, choosing career over family where a women feels most appreciated, or any number of other issues. Believe me I tried it. In my case it manifested into many physical and medical issues. My surgeon told me (just as an example) “women were designed to carry babies, men were designed to carry everything else”. I use this just as an example that WE can’t do it all even though we would like to believe that we can. Although WE do wear many hats and some points we have to shut off the music and decide which hat we truly want to wear and who we really want to be.
