If your SO pays their share of bills and does half of childcare and chores, do you care if they work?

As long as your SO/DH contributed half of the bills and mortgage, did at least half of taking care of the children, and at least half of household chores, would you care whether they worked or not or if they worked just one day a week for example? This is on the assumption that you keep finances separate so their level of income does not impact you.

If they pay half the costs, I wouldn't care where the money came from (within reason, obviously).

But if they are home most of the time, they can do at least 2/3 of the household stuff.
