My example was meant to be an example. The point I was trying to make is that one half shouldn't be out there struggling while the other sits around. Hmm, maybe I just can't figure out a way to say what I meant. That's not coming out right either. Your spouse wants you to be at home. It's not like you're laying around while he's holding down 3 jobs.
I have a childhood friend who teaches all day and then works a second job at night because her lazy idiot of a husband hasn't held down a job in over 5 years! He's a school administrator, but he decided he wanted to write a book, so he left his job. Well, 5 years later, there's no great American novel forthcoming, and she's working like a fiend to keep things together.
And yes, I would tell him to hit the bricks.
