Does this seem fair..

I've been a sahm mum for a couple of years and I finally got back to work. I earn roughly £400-£500 a week, Dh earns £750 ish a week. He has suggested that we both put £300 of each wages a week for bills.

That would leave me with £200 a week more than enough I know and I'm not complaining, but as he earns more than me surely that isn't fair?

If you find a time machine, or if anyone is reading this who has not yet had children, go tell your younger self not to have children with someone without discussing these issues.

Sadly we cannot assume that just because you are in love with someone it means they are sensible and reasonable.

One joint bank account! I don't care how much more he earns. You have been at home looking after his children for however many years. You are both equal.

Hurrah he agreed! It might have just sounded like a passing comment but I would take that as a first thing tomorrow make an appointment with the bank to set it up so ask when would be best for him and if he says what's this about just say remember how you said we were opening that account up

I'm saying that because I don't think he is being fair and once you were on maternity leave you should have had some cash without having to ask for it so if you find yourself out of work for any type of reason it would be nice for you to not have to ask!
