Chapter 1: Who are the hosts and guest co-hosts of this episode?
Traveling. 46 weeks. Yeah, 46 episodes. Yeah. So, yeah, come join us. Check us out.
I'll be sure to link it. But today I'm getting into all sorts of just relationship dilemmas and marital woes, just all sorts of quality marital chaos. I need a title. I've been trying to think and rack my brain for a title. I didn't even put anything on the folder. I just had it labeled Matt and Amy on my folder because I've been waiting for you guys for a lot of these stories. I love it.
Marital mishaps, marital misfits.
I don't know. We'll get to the end and you guys will give me a title. We'll figure it out. But buckle up for some of these. They're going to be good.
All right.
Perfect. Let's dive in. Okay. Up first, this is coming from AITAH, 24 days old, titled, Am I the Asshole? Husband and Mother-in-law are bullying me into being a stay-at-home mom, but I paid for our house. My husband is rich, like makes $50,000 a month rich. Nice. We agreed on three things before our baby was born.
One, if I covered the 20% down payment on our house, he'd cover the monthly expenses, including child care. Two, if I leave my high paying job after my maternity leave was up, my husband would support me, focusing on building my consulting business, which would give me more flexibility with our baby. And three, we'd get a full time nanny so we could both work.
And while I'd work from home to get to see the baby, and outside nanny hours we'd split childcare 50-50. The issue came up when now my husband refuses to lift a finger because he's the provider. He won't do any overnights, even though the baby takes bottles. I am exhausted and burnt out and feel like I got bait and switched.
I try to talk to him and he blew up at me, calling me a princess and lazy. I guess he ran to his mom because I got a message the next morning saying I'm putting the family in financial crisis if I won't be a stay-at-home mom for at least the next couple of months. Am I the asshole for telling them no, I will not be forced into being a stay-at-home mom?

Chapter 2: What are the issues in the stay-at-home mom vs. working mom debate?
Drain your savings account. Is that what it is?
That's what it's giving for me. The more I think about it and it's like there's no mention of prenup, but like probably wouldn't be mentioned in this post because she's not thinking divorce. But it's like. Is there a prenup? And what state are they in?
Yeah. Yeah.
Someone like, I think Katy Perry almost lost an eye or almost like she got really sprayed in the face. I bet she did. No. Just kidding. Just kidding. But didn't you see the video?
No.
I'll show you the gif. We're good.
I believe you. She went to space apparently.
Oh, wow. She like really, and it was high velocity. That's very high velocity. I think she did say she almost like lost an eye from the slime. I hope that was non-toxic. Top comment on this one. If he makes 50K a month and you working puts the family in financial crisis, there's a giant line of bullshit. Is it mom or husband lying? Maybe he's lost money gambling or doesn't make that much money.
Or maybe he lied to mom and she's lying to you.
