Well, he has probably been the best thing that happened to my marriage! I'm glad he doesn't turn away callers who have relationship problems mixed into the financial!
Yes she is probably a cry baby who creates a lot of nonsense when she stays at home. This is not about money. She needs to work because she will probably be a bad stay at home mom.
@@bookcollection2883 I think you're going off of too little information to accurately use the term "probably." It's possible, but no way to say probable with any certainty. It could possibly be that since he grew up with a mother who worked in the workforce, his view of the mother's role is to do the same. Maybe he feels he'd be taken advantage of if he's the only one earning money. And that could be trust issues on his part or a skewed view of healthy roles in marriage and parenthood. Again, no way to be certain or say what is probable in this case. Many possibilities.
Growing up my Dads friend made over $300k back then it was a lot of money. His wife worked full time at a restaurant because she wanted to have her own income. Their daughter went to private school, and at 17 got a job in fast food. The father passed away when the daughter was in her 20’s she started partying and flying to night clubs on helicopters with the money she inherited. The mom still worked as a waitress because she liked people. They lived in a multi-million dollar home. The mom was always level headed. The daughter squandered her inheritance but found rich guys to bail her out. Now she’s 50 and no guys are coming to the rescue and she is completely broke. Humility goes a long way
@@coleautoclark4126 she did this after her father died. father probably made a deal and made her work and once she seen he die and got all the money. quit her job and party.
And that would be a very good reason. First things first, he should have NEVER married her. She wants an easy ride and married into it. She wants to be a "stay at home mom". Okay. But I guarantee that with his income, she will be spending HIS money on things like maids or housekeepers and having food delivered while she sits on the couch watching talk shows and whines about how her life just isn't complete. I REALLY hope there was a pre-nup. Because he's gonna need it.
@@justabill5780 I think they're in Canada. I just read an article the other day about how their tribunal court (or whatever they have up there) ruled that an *unmarried* man had to essentially pay his ex _girlfriend_ alimony, because regarddless that they didn't live together, they didn't own a house together, etc., the council still decided they were married because they were acting as a married couple - paperwork or not. Yeah...
@@justabill5780 😂 okay, but after they married, that was no longer just "HIS" money. And they should've had a conversation before they married, obviously.
Some people change their minds after the child is born. That happened with my asst boss. She never came back to the company but originally had every plan to do so.
I think she probably didnt and now that she's had a child she doesn't want to miss out. When I had my first child I didnt work for 6 months. Only reason I went back is because I was a single mom. I really hated putting my daughter in daycare and missed time with her
@@ElmoTinker im great now. At that time I moved to FL and was staying with family until I got a job. Moved in with a roommate for a year and then got my own place. Wanted more money so I moved back home to NJ. I co owned a home with family in NJ so I moved back into the house and got a job with the PO 7 months after moving back. Its been almost 7 years, have a second child but making enough to live comfortably and for my kids to have savings
@@christian-gu5oq, Simps gonna Simp... They only have 1 kid. So she really won't be that busy.... If they had 4 or more kids, then sure, that would be a full time job. 1 kid, after getting out of diapers doesn't take that much time to care for.
Andrew Mattox What I said has nothing to do with being a simp. I’m simply looking at it financially and sensibly there is no reason for her to work. Your child’s first few years are the most important. Also, why pay a nanny that really makes her income minimal the guy in this situation isn’t using his brain.
Rod Thompson Plenty of stupid people earn millions. I don’t think he’s stupid he’s not making a financial decision. He just what he wants and some men want that just like some women refuse to not work.
Had she told Dave that in addition to the $975K income that they had $10K in debt, Dave would have her continue working, picking up a second job, no more kids and living on rice & beans for a week until that debt was gone.
@@MzEllaful - And he likes to mix his religious beliefs in with finances as well. 👿👿 It's not your money, but gods money, you're just the manager of it. Nonsense!
This makes no sense and there is stuff she didn’t say. Either he is insane or she is omitting something major. For example my sister in-law had the same problem with her husband. He makes 250k and she was complaining about him making her keep her job. When I asked he told me this. She has a house maid that comes and cleans the house 3 times per week. And she has a nanny that takes care of the baby. When I come home from work I help with the baby so what is she doing during the time am working. The maid cleans the house and the nanny leaves after I come home from work.
There's definitely a lot being left out on this call. As much as I love this show it always annoys me when people call in and presented an obviously biased picture
Casey J she tried to get my wife to help her with the baby when the husband stoped paying for the nanny and later on went back to her actuary job to pay for the nanny. They come from a very rich family and her mom never took care of them. It was the nannies that raised them.
@@lvluptoaverage52 But what was she doing when everyone else was cleaning the house and looking after the children? That's what the husband was complaining about and that's what I want to know now? 🤔
A wife at home does more than just raise a child. She transfers values and culture, along with the father. This is desperately needed in today’s world.
This is what people CONTINUALLY overlook... one of the pillars of generational wealth is that wife and mother teaching those children the respect of the man and his values that have created the bulk of said wealth, and how to walk in said values. If someone is not home to do that, it does not, and generational wealth TENDS to be destroyed.
@@hymnodyhandsHow True. We need more ladies like this. And we need men who value the women who want to stay home. Restoring the family unit can transform a nation.
My wife stays home, but she doesn't feel like she's not doing anything; she thinks she's overworked! She's not totally wrong, she has six kids to raise and homeschool plus a huge house to keep up. But she does a really good job!
Homeschooling 6 children and taking care of meals, the house, etc? That job begins at 6:00am and ends at 10pm, with no vacation or sick leave!! Lol, good for her!!
That sounds more taxing and demanding than most jobs, but she sounds incredible. I couldn't do that by myself, I'd need an aunt or grandma or live-in nanny to help me.
Wth. She is overworked. I’d much rather work a simple predictable 9-5. Hire her a maid or a helper. Also why not send the kids to normal school? If you don’t let her rest she’s gonna leave.
The problem is not financial. I have seen this before. Some men are like “if I have to work, so do you”. I dint care which one works and which one stays home, but if there is ANY way one parent can stay home, and raise your children. They should and they must. No ONE will love or care for your children the way a parent will.
As a man, I don't understand this whatsoever. I would gladly work enough so that my wife, whom I love, can stay home and raise our children. If I don't make enough and am struggling to make ends meet, then that's a different story.
how long do you need to stay home to raise the children? Also if she's just going to be hanging out with a kids all day with no ambition the guy is going to eventually fall out of love with her. Ramsay's wife was a pillar in the community. she stayed active.
I stayed home with my kids. And my husband's friend said that I was dragging him down and members of his family said the same. But my husband said he wanted me to stay home and raise our children. And I believed our children deserve to be raised by me not a babysitter.
Funny how people ridicule women at home raising their children but don't ridicule someone having a stranger raising their kids. I would never be ok with other people raising my children or even teaching them. What a shame that other people have to do what women have neglected and abandoned to do!
I had a baby sitter for five hours of the day, but my mom and or dad was with me the rest of the day, and she was like a grand mother to me and I'm still friends with her grandkids. But my parents worked together, and both really loved their jobs. Babysitters can work for some, but in this case there's seriously no need for the mom to work! Why hire a babysitter when you can easily afford to have the mother stay home?
Prob doesn't want to be paying alimony later. 😆 I mean its also about what he wants too, maybe he thinks she should work and sacrifice like he does? Such as not getting time with the child as she does? Who knows?
Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

Thank you Mr. Ramsey for acknowledging a woman's incredible career. Sounds like this dear woman's husband needs to go to the Scriture and find out his duty as provider and protector and acknowledge her place in the marriage as helpmate and teacher of her children.
We really. Really. Need to hear his side. Married for a year? My guess he thinks she will then divorce him and claim she has a zero income and take him for all he is worth. Or he feels like she married him just so she could live off him and he feels like he was used. The reality is: they should have addressed kids and how they will he raised (especially with his income) in pre marriage counseling. My guess is they didn't. And now it comes up a year in and, well the guy makes 1 mil a year how would he not be wondering about this?
@@MicheleNichols2 I know he trusts her now, but people change. The same spouse you talk to before you have kids transforms( especially your wife) after having kids. You're honestly not dealing with the same person spiritually, mentally, and biologically. Marriages are made because you trust the person they are. prenups/ doubts are created for the different person they'll become. If that makes sense
@@MicheleNichols2 true but people change. Again we don't know his side. Considering his income I think fair to say we can't assume she is a complete victim.
I have been married for 25 years and my wife has not had any job for 17 years and we’re happy it’s not my money it’s Our money. Two children 19 and 17.
A true partnership, right? 🙌 I can't wrap my head around these men and women saying "give the kid to daycare...she will become lazy and obese if she stays home....she will cheat and take your money " our society is falling apart and I don't wonder why.
@@katrina3560 Truly. We're doomed if a woman staying home to raise her children and keep her home is controversial. But the silver lining is that most of these terrible comments are from bitter men, who statically don't make nearly enough money for them to be concerned with this decision. Many are living vicariously through this man's salary to exert their beliefs that the role of a mother is to be devalued and disrespected.
Nothing wrong with that as long as it's a "till death do us apart" type of marriage. I hope you make a lot cause if something happens to you, she'll need some money otherwise the lack of job experience on her part won't look good to employers.
@@katrina3560 Trust me when I tell you that a lot of the women in my generation are the kind of people to expect the man to literally do all the work. I’m talking about expecting the man to pamper her and treat her like a “queen” while she sits back with her only redeeming quality being her looks. Let’s be honest it’s partially because of the way they were raised. You guys are talking about old fashioned values where it’s expected to trust your spouse. It’s difficult to find someone you actually can nowadays. Y’all need to switch up your mindset to account for the now very high divorce rate which has been consistently on the rise since the 80s. I love some old fashioned values, but I think marriage should be a team effort. My generation doesn’t think like yours. My generation barely know what morals are honestly because they were never taught that it was even a factor they should take into account. This creates people who are entitled, lazy, and opportunistic at the expense of others. I just don’t understand why the older generations scrutinize us for how reality sadly is now when y’all are the ones that raised them to be this way. I’m all for accountability, but let’s be honest, how a child is raised greatly impacts how they turn out. Environmental factors do play a role for sure.
@Dr. Johnny Sins That's f**ed up to assume that. People don't cheat as a result of having spare time, they cheat as a result of being an immoral person.
I know he didn't ask, but she's probably very attractive physically. More than likely he's afraid that if she stays home, she will let herself go and grow obese like so many other women do when they choose to stay home. He is not unreasonable in his thinking.
This is the kind subject that Ramsey can only comment but can’t make a call. It’s up to every couple. And the person we need to convince is not even in the room. This lady should have a good conversation with her husband. There are tones of reasons he may not welling to have a stay at home wife, and it’s not necessarily he is planning for a divorce.
@@queenofdahouse1591 not untrue. But let's say she did change her mind after becoming a mother. Dude makes a mil a year. Well within his rights to wonder if she has changed and just wants to live off him and not work. Regardless of any of that. This is an objectively weird call. She is either leaving out a major piece of the disagreement or he is crazy.
@@queenofdahouse1591 no. an entitled, privileged woman can change her mind at birth. Let's be honest, it's one kid. Not a whole lot of raising going on especially after the kid starts school.
@@queenofdahouse1591Yeah, women have no accountability to live up to anything they agreed to do before marriage. Total double standard. If a man changed his mind and decided not to work full time after the birth of his child, no one would take his side.
We have raised 4 children in Toronto quite nicely on about a 10th of your household income for more than 25 years now. I have no regrets about not going back to work full time. When I needed a challenge (volunteering, a little more income, intellectual stimulation, etc) an opportunity could always be found. I loved being able to be with my children growing up. It is not easy but as with all difficult things, worth it. Here's a funny story to inspire you: The Australian columnist, Angela Shanahan, was once introduced at a dinner party by her senior journalist husband to a pompous male twit. Said pompous twit asked her what she did and, when she replied that she was a full-time mother to her nine children, retorted 'Oh, my partner is far too intelligent to waste her life like that.' Quick as a flash, the wonderful Angela riposted 'Well, she didn't show much intelligence in her choice of husband, did she?'
@@leeche87 I was born in Africa. Africans do not have large families because children may die young. They have large families because family and not things are considered riches in their wise, old culture. Children are dying in Africa largely because of corruption.
Canada has terrible divorce \ family laws. Once she establishes herself as a non working SAHM, she'll be able to take him for 600K a year between child support and spousal support.
Title is misleading. In marriage there is no "Let" (unless by force but that's abuse) it's a mutual decision that should be discussed and AGREED upon. If both parties can't agree then you don't do it.
@@ebonyburnette4211 Hmmmm I see what you're saying. But "let" is a strong word. People use that word when they don't get their way. Myself included. Sometimes I jokingly blame my wife when I don't get my way. But in reality what I want isn't in the best interest.
For all the people saying "Her husband just doesn't want her to be a lazy trophy wife" has clearly never raised/taken care of children that much...the full time job that never ends, either you pay someone to take care of your kids or you do it yourself...there is no other options
Or could’ve not had kids in the first place. That’s what I did. I absolutely refuse to pay for someone else’s life And that’s also why I won’t ever get married
@@Gamebreaker08 Why not? The husband works 40 hours a week for a salary. The wife works 40 hours a week looking after the kids, saving the money otherwise used to pay for child care (which could easily add up to the 10s of thousands depending on number of kids). Then when each couple has finished their 40 hours of work, they split household and childcare duties. The children get the best care possible, neither parent is overstressed, win-win for everyone.
I had a guy at work tell me his wife doesn’t work because she stays home and looks after the kids. I asked him how old his kids were. He said 19 and 21. This full time mom thing is a scam because it’s treated like a lifetime job when it is not
Sadly CXK...it's too late. And she knows it. She has him in her back pocket. By this time next year she'll be divorced with full custody of the kid and $500K a year in alimony and child support.
Yeah, trust me a mom doesn't work even close as hard as someone even working at a 8hr non stop burger flipping job. Also hard work doesn't equivalent to high pay. I know many that make multi millions a year and some a month. Those people do not work hard. At one time they did in fact work hard to start out. Today with the numbers they produce they do not work as hard as someone who works a job under $50 an hour.
@@topcomment3816 That's exactly it. Your wife is a full time nanny or babysitter no more no less. Basically full time nanny tops even with best family might possibly make that 100k if they are like family, but you would be lucky to get 30k a year
I’ve always wanted to stay home with my kiddo unfortunately I’m a single parent so I have no choice. If you have the choice, do it and enjoy it! I wish her luck! I’ve missed so much of her life it’s heartbreaking. Some women just have a purpose of raising their kids. That’s their job. Not everyone loves money. 🤷♀️
With that amount of money and her comparatively low amount of income this isn’t a financial issue. He’s hung up on what his idea of an “equal partnership” is. Men that make that type of money in a professional capacity think about and value money. If he sees you not bringing anything to the table financially and had a mother that worked 2-3 jobs. What he’s missing is the value you bring as a stay at home mother. Not only the savings but the improved development of the child with a biological a parent. He’s an investment guy; so sell it to him. Pull up the stats on child development, cognitive ability, and accidents on stay at home parent versus a nanny or daycare. Run the house. If he’s bringing home 975k you need to provide a premium experience running that house for the children and for him. Gourmet meals, white glove cleanliness (no maids), the whole nine yards. Make the sale, and more importantly, deliver.
see... this is a logical approach to the solution. I can't help but think is that, nah, she wants to enjoy a plush stay home with the kid experience. Do nothing outside of tending to the kid. She'll have the attitude of why should she cook, clean, and run the house if "they" are earning nearly a $1MM? She wants only Disney, play dates, trips to the mall and Starbucks with a designer baby.
Reaching far on that one....you are looking for a reason to make her seem helpless and victimize her all while making him seem or sound like a snarling beast...
She married him for an easy life and money. She didn't tell him she wanted to be a mooch before hand because he would have told her to pound sand. Classic bait-and-switch maneuver by a woman. Now he will get dragged through the mud because of HER manipulation. This is why men should NEVER get married.
@@kiki11974 : There is NO benefit to getting married if you are a man. There is only risk. Look at it by the numbers: >50% of marriages end in divorce. 80% of divorces are initiated by the wife. 80% of men lose custody of their children in divorce. Almost 50% of men lose almost All contact with their children after divorce, yet are required to pay outrageous amounts in child support and/or alimony. Most men lose their homes in a divorce and must support their former spouse. Even if she is at fault. So why would a man get married?
She's investing a tremendous trust in her husband. 20 years from now if he decides to go for a younger woman, and she has no career , she's going to struggle. She's trusting that he will always be there. He should appreciate that she trusts him so much.
she not gonna struggle at all the courts gonna do what they always do and give the woman a bunch of money in child support and alimony and even more if she ain’t working so my mans isn’t dumb at all for not wanting her to stay at home not worming
Mom Guilt is so REAL! I’ve been a stay at home mom for quite a while and I feel like I’m supposed to be working but when I got a job, I felt guilty to not dedicate all of my time to the family so I quit! It’s hard.
My guess is that he might think she married him for his money. All of her behavior so far has indicated that she did. -She makes decent money so probably went to college, so she probably has $250k in student loans, which he may be holding her to pay for. -She gets pregnant, probably unplanned. -She begins sliding into the I don't want to work attitude, masqueraded as: "I want to raise my kid" (bet you she will still get a babysitter and lounge all day) -He now has to pay for her student loans. --She files for divorce -He now has to "maintain her lifestyle" and she makes a substantial amount of his future income. This man is smart and is protecting what he built.
It's not always about the money. Her staying home could completely change your relationship dynamic. Without hearing his side and thoughts that may be valid. If it's only a money issue yes you can but we are only getting half the story.
Just because someone is making that kind of money doesn’t mean they are financially secure,He probably want her to continue to work because of the debt their in
let her work and let him become a stay at home dad, I bet he would like that as well. This is the equality all women fought for, can't have it both ways. You both work and you both see about the kids and house duties.
Unfortunately, Dave is a traditionalist and always takes the side of the woman. Stay at home dad? Dave to a male calling in: "You are the one that is supposed work for your family in order to pay the bills. It is implied in the Bible! What is wrong with you?"
I love Dave's women's empowerment, she doesn't have to be a business woman. she 's doing the most important job, raising great human beings and working the most important place in the world, the home.
From experience.....You start dating, then the moment you get married she tells you she want to stay home and don’t want to work anymore, couple years down the line she ask for divorce, takes half of everything and put you on child support.
Call was from Canada. $975,000 Canadian is about $700,000 USD . Still respectable. Putting myself in his position I can see where he wants his life partner to be in the same stage of life. A couple can grow apart if one works outside the home and the other doesn’t.
the problem is that the role of stay at home mom is undervalued and under appreciate. this a clear example. It would be so much healthier for the child to be raised by their own mother.
@@jackkramerwidescreen this is literally the dumbest generalization I have ever heard. Wouldn’t it depend on the women ? If the women isn’t toxic why would she be a toxic mother ?

My brother plays basketball professionally overseas For the past 13 years.. roughly speaking he has made 4.5 mill + - his wife stopped working as an attorney for all of those years and they had four kids total. They still had a nanny and would take lavish trips and she would spend his money like there’s no tomorrow.. Demanding they do things they truly cannot afford.

In other words, it’s always the guys fault no matter what, innit?
This baffles me. This conversation needs to be done before you get married, even before you get engaged. It’s funny how Dave jokes about the women leaving the husband with the kid and how quickly he’d change his mind...let’s be honest, the husband would buy his mom a house across the street or hire a full time nanny that would teach the kid 3 languages with what he makes a year. That’s a dated argument that’s funny but when people really have the choices that money affords you, it doesn’t hold up. There’s more to this than she could share in a short conversation or more than she is willing to share. I think today there are a growing number of people who do not want to be the sole provider because of the mental/emotional strain, they grew up seeing that 2 incomes were needed to be stable even if one income would cover it if everyone lived within their means. He could be one of those people or maybe he really would rather his kid go to a public or private school. She needs to have that open and honest conversation with her husband to find out where he really stands. We’re all just making guesses, I just hope anyone who may experience this in the future, have this convo before you get married please. If I can’t agree with how you want to raise children, then I don’t certainly am not going to have children with you.
It happens all the time. A mother with one kid has a job and goes back and forth to daycare everyday. Then a second baby is on the way and Mom realizes it’s exhausting to get two kids to daycare and the expense and go to a job. Deciding to stay home happens frequently.
I agree. Let's say I'm her husband. What I'd like to say is: "We can make it off of your $90,000 a year. I want to be a stay at home dad and raise our children." How would that conversation go?
Mr. Grim That’s literally what I think the conversation should look like...the phrasing needs work. Your wife might not value having you stay at home with your kid or kids. She may think daycare would be better since they have programs that teach the kids numbers and letters. Have the conversation before your married then you both can figure out if you’d want to raise kids together. However, the situation of making nearly a million a year...that type of money gives options as far as heading a charity or starting some type of business even if you were staying home. I wish Dave was a really good detective for us...
@@MrGrim-bl6nf I been asking my husband to do this from before we even had our sons. He refuses he wants to work. We can make it on my income it's such a waste to pay for two kids daycare when his entire check and some of mine goes to pay for someone else to care for our kids. Blah...
Thank you for honoring motherhood and taking care of the homelife. It is work. I've had to work mostly part-time, but we both wish I could have stayed home the whole time. Know who my children wanted more than the basics of life? Me. And I'm glad that we could give it to them. Shame on this husband who can very well provide for his family.
J J Lots of details are missing about why he wants her to work for she is only talking from her side. We don’t know how well she has been taking care of their kid and house works.
The man has his principles. Go and talk to your husband. Dave is not your husband. The husband doesn’t want her to become too lazy. The man has a principle. His mother still works and has 3 jobs. That should tell you something! Talk to your husband. It’s not about the money. He believes in working
@@morganccosner9891 I agree but there are 99% chance to be complacent compared to having a job or a career. Majority of obese patients that I have encountered in my practice don’t work. Apart from obesity, there are other health problems that affects those who don’t want to work. I’m sure the husband won’t mind if she has a part time job. But his principle is very clear!
I would argue that the role of mother is a more important position to our society than an "investment advisor", the problem is that in modern day society, value is almost solely based on how well you can monetize something...
facts then if she be a stay at home mom she gonna start using 150k - 200k like she worked for it or was using that much before. I don’t care if he makes a million a second, you’re still gonna work there’s no free ride and stress free life just cause I’m making a lot of money . You gonna have a job too making your own money and not draining mine.
A better question Dave, would have been: did you talk about being a stay at home mom before you were married? I’m not saying this was planned but this is something she had been already thinking.
She probably had the feeling she would never have to work after she had a child because he makes so much money and no that she has the child but she’s confronted to go back to work now she’s having this issue of not getting what she (maybe) was expecting.
There are always details missing, and Dave asked “why?” twice, with no response. It sucks that Dave immediately attacked the man with no context whatsoever though. That seems to be a trend.
Dave needs to understand that he's only getting one side of the story. He's over here making insults and calling him "boy child" like he has the whole picture.
JewelBlueIbanez I wouldn’t put that on his evangelical views, I’m an evangelical Christian and I disagree with him on this one. What is this wife going to be doing while her husband is at work and the help takes care of all of the chores?
@@dboatright2497 Yeah. Kids don't stay young forever. Once that child grows up, he/she doesn't need his mother anymore and can do things on his own. She won't go back to work after the child is somewhat grown. Laziness!
It’s amazing how today it’s looked at as pathetic to actually have a stay at home parent to raise your own children and create human beings that see family more than sitters.
Perhaps he sees a lot of outside help with his wife and not a lot with his mother’s. Which could lead to resentment towards the wife or idolizing his mother.
it is sure a lot of tasks and effort but it is not job. you need a job to survive and pay bills, you don't need kids to survive. what a materialistic approach to have kids, no wonder when it comes to money everyone forgets about love because raised by mom whose "job" it was to raise them. tons of people do their jobs bad, same with moms i guess.
When she divorces him he doesn’t want her saying she was forced to stay at home to get more alimony. 900k vs 90k income means his head already has a rifle pointed at it.
Dude probably doesn’t want a housewife, sounds like he wants dual income. Yeah he makes a lot but it’s all on him still. I want to hear why he said no to her
If he wanted to stay home with the kid, I wonder what she/Dave would say. I bet the reason he wants her to keep working is if she quits her job to raise children and they get divorced later, she can get much more alimony because she gave up her career to raise children.
Why are people always salty when a caller has a high income? You’ll never make it being bitter/envious. Just because they make good money doesn’t mean they can’t seek advice
Chicano Azteca this isn’t the right type of dynamic to have in a marriage where one person is “powerful” and the other person isn’t. There should be equal respect and understanding. She should be able to go to her husband and freely express herself. This type of dynamic leads to abusive tendencies like maybe social shaming, financial abuse etc. Nobody should have to fear their husband.
