hopeforcharles:Do they have a housemaid? Doesn't she look after the children? Doesn't she do housework? How is that not contributing to the family? |

Kingosytex:He can't provide a nanny yet expects a woman with two children under three years old to earn. Whilst this woman is working, who is taking care of the house, who is taking care of the children after school? Who is preparing them to school? Who is running the home? Who is doing market runs and all the myriad of things required to make the home function. Well, since he cannot afford a maid, let the wife list all the things she does in the house and both of them share it equally so she can have the time to work and 'add value'. |

bukatyne:Are you a non earning wife? If you are one, please find a source of income. Being a wife isn’t a full time job. |

DrFunmisticGlow:The woman is pressing phone all day long. This means she has a housemaid paid for by her hardworking husband, who is obviously not satisfied with how she is NOT looking after the children. I am only concerned that she is still his wife. What does the Bible say about no food for lazy people ![]() |

kenben:it's not only being fortunate it's about background, my mom supported my dad when she was alive. We are 3 in number of children, I'm the oldest while my 2 younger siblings are still in school in fact my brother is due to graduate this year, our last girl is still in 2nd year at UNN. My mum was a lecturer before she died 2018 while my Dad is a career Pilot, he still flies now, but would soon retire. My Dad was away most times he flies Aero, but now he's in Air peace. My mom kept the house together when my dad wasn't around, she took care of us I don't remember lacking anything my Dad can be away for months on training and stuffs, even when Aero owed them for months my mom sustained us.. the point is most ladies have this entitled character that it's a man's duty to do all the provisions.. |

hopeforcharles:But that's the truth. How does a man come to a public forum and complain about a thing like this...in a public forum? What happened to people in his circle? Or his family? or the wife's family? What help can he possibly get from a public forum? I think too many men make the same mistakes. Not articulating properly what it is they want from a woman. Thi man wanted a woman that can nuture something but failed to take stock of her intellectually. He probably is one of those people who feel intimidated by a woman with a high level of intellectual capacity and probably concluded that such women will not be submissive. |

anonimi:Did op say outright that he got her a housemaid, because if he didn't and she is a stay at home wife, then she is contributing to the household. Unpaid labor is still labor. If stay at home wives charge at the standard rate for the work they do, many men will become bankrupt. His job is to provide. He is not required to look after the home or the kids. If he is so resentful, let op switch roles with her for a day and see how he fares. How does he know that she is pressing phone all day, is he with her all day? To me, op is low key ungrateful. Many single men looking for the opportunity that he takes for granted |

funkmrflexx:Before marriage.... didn't you see signs of her not being one to add to the marriage? ...or you weren't looking for signs? You set up a business for her ....did she ask you to? ..was she interested? You got her and married her " when you had money" .... why would you think she would be thinking of adding to the marriage? You lured her with money ...money you must always have ..or she'll rather be cheating on you with one who can provide for her than work. The sooner you understand working and contributing financially is not on her programme the better it will be for you |

sweerychick:Some women don't have the privilege of earning 6 figures. The labour market in Nigeria is very competitive n almost impossible especially for new comers without the necessary networks. Not defending lazy women however, the situation of declining family income is a crisis that has not gotten any attention and most women are not in well paid employment. Are we going to say they should stay single till they find a well paying job? There's no single approach that works for everyone, the single goal of achieving a happy home however they can should be encouraged instead. |
| Re: My Wife Isn't Adding Any Value To My Life by Lamasta(m): 1:34pm On Mar 09 |
bukatyne:All those successful women you see today heading cooperation and companies you think they don't have children and home ba? If they are sitting idly at home and doing nothing will they get to the apogee of their careers today? You ladies will just be defending yourselves anyhow |

You didnt look well before you married. Considering the fact that some men do not want their wife to work, you cant actually blame her if that was the type of spouse she was looking for. You should have settled with a woman that have the same mentality as you. The only thing you can do now is to avoid making more babies because you already have 3(yes, including your wife) that you are taking care of. Now cut family expenses to suit your income such that you will have savings every month. If shes is ok with playing at the level of one income, I dont think you can change her. |
