It's some they have to seat down and talk about,in my own opinion the man should resign but not to seat at home,they can open a business close to the house that way the man will have flexible time. he can take the children to school and pick them up after also do some other things. menix: 1 Like |

mbulela:ok good...I don't listen to motivational speakers, they speak to make money juSt like pastors who move people with their words hence...more money. Any entrepreneur who borrows money isn't a good planner, I'm still an undergraduate but an entrepreneur...my elder sis runs a blooming business, her masters and a paid job. it takes a great employee to be a good employer/entrepreneur...you don't jez run into a business and start borrowing, you raise your capital and plan for both gain and loss...that's business. That's the reason my advice was based on both not quitting "just yet" but to raise capital. Myles munroe once said..."sell what sells and you'll make money" now what sells is usually based on your environment. in the north you see hausa men like ten on the same street selling the same things but they still make their money, why...they sell what sells. Even I myself would love to be an employee after I graduate...to pursue a career but it won't stop my being an entrepreneur. P.S: we have the same views on the so called motivational speakers. |

They could both put money together and start a business for the husband A very good one at that, while he looks for another job that is not as demanding, say working in the Ministry or smething |

If I was then man I will resign and take care of my kids. If my wife doesn't respect me then I will know how shallow she is and treat her so. Will also use that period to learn some other computer skills. These are my kids not another's will sacrifice my career and possible emasculation for them. |

menix: I think the husband should resign. Both of them should turn the situation to their advantage. With financial support from the wife and the extra time the man has, he should start going into personal business, for example; exportation or importation business, agrobusiness etc. He can start by going for training and workshops and try to develop skills in the line of whichever business he chooses. This is a very sensitive period in their Family life, it can break or make the Family. The wife should be really careful in dealing with the husband and be ready to support him as he finds his feet. Starting a new business isn't easy. He as a man should also be ready to endure and tolerate a lot awkward situations. Once he can scale through the first two years of the situation, himself and his Family will be the better for it. |

miqos02: If the bible told us eve was sent as man's helper, the man certainly is the boss, who does the major work while he get assistant from his wife.. So it's the man's function to provide for his home.. The truth be told, it's only A lazy man that allows his wife cater for the family.. 1 Like |
Re: His Wife Earns Four Times His Salary And Someone Must Resign by Nobody: 12:10pm On Oct 10, 2015 |
Both the father and mother have equal responsibility over their children. Agreed, childrearing absentees can breed disfunctional children but so does poverty. You cannot put your kids through that.They will be the ones to curse you and move out of the home before they clock 18. In nigeria, the most important decision you can make for your kids is to secure a good future for them so they have what to fall back on when things get tough given the increasing number of joblessness. I will not advise any of them to quit their jobs except one of them has an alternate option that will create more time for the kids while he/she retains his/her 'life' outside the home. |

miqos02: Thank you love, I dunno why they all twisting things and making it seem like ladies are less human. What's wrong if she's the top earner? Mark my words, "any man intimidated by a lady's ability,influence and success,is a disgrace to the human race" It's pathetic most Nairaland males are less of a man. |

All I can say is that I love you for your sense and wisdom. Funny Hw pple say the man should abdicate his role as the Man of the house and resign because of money. As long as it's a paid job they can loose their jobs at any time. justcallbuki: 1 Like |

Its the woman's duty 2look after the children. But since working is all about the money & the woman earns more, then the man may consider resigning. Probably start up a biz dats less time consuming. Alternatively, they should consider getting a nanny. Its a gamble I agree, but they may just be lucky to get a good one. Day-care is another option. |
