I'm getting silent treatment from husband and son because he didn't have enough cash to take the boy to a promised sports event. I'm getting tired of fixing everything and trying to make everything ok when we are broke. I work full time but it's never enough.

Yes, it seems we won't be getting anything further from them.

But as usual, the questions are:

  • could the SAHP actually improve the family finances by taking a job?
  • was it a mutual decision for the SAHP to SAH and the WOHP to be sole earner?
  • are both parties weight pulling with a fair share of labour?
  • are both parties making similar sacrifices if money is tight?

Can't possibly answer with so little information.

That's really great Larry and sounds like you both like and respect each other and your roles within the family. I'm sorry I read something into it that wasn't meant.

Definitely seems like OP has disappeared. We need context!
