Hubby wants me to be a stay-at-home mom

THE LOUNGE: I graduated in 2007, worked for sometime, then took a career break to raise children. They are now old enough and I found a new job, which I really like, but it involves a lot of fieldwork. My husband is now totally against it saying I am neglecting the family (especially the children) and now he wants me to resign. It doesn’t matter that this job is a good foundation for my career, he says that since he paid for my degree, it is ok if I spend my time taking care of my family and that he earns enough money to adequately support the family. Please advice...

Your take
When God created Adam, he realised he couldn’t do well without a helper, he got him one — Eve. You are the Eve in your house, have you been playing your role right?

Your husband is just insecure and the only thing you need is to assure him, by action and talk, that you will still be his wife irrespective of the many travels you make. It only shows how much he loves you and that is the reason he paid for your degree.

Assure your husband that even with your job, you will still be the wife and the mother that you were before. He is insecure, you only need to clear his doubts and let him know that you need the job as much as you need the family.

I feel your husband and I don’t understand why you should disobey him yet he is the one who took you to school, if he is ready to provide, sit pretty and be a good wife.

When your husband took you to college, I don’t think he did so for you to get professional knowledge in raising children and being a good wife. He knew you had to get a job at some point, sit him down and assure him you still be a good wife even with the job.
