I think men need to get out of the house and be productive in the otherside world. the fact that the world has so many stay-at-home-dads does not make it a normal thing! its not the way things are supposed to be! Women are supposed to be the ones taking care of the children and all the housework and the men should be the ones providing for their family. you can change that around and have them each to the other ones work but its not the way Hashem made the world. before they contemplate divorce (I think she should make it clear that shes thinking about that) she should tell him that if he can pull himself together and get a job then she would be more than happy to stay with him. a rav is a MUST in this case IMHO
