When asked to become a stay-at-home mom, the woman made a bold demand: half of her husband’s company. She shared her story on Reddit and sparked a lot of discussion online. Let’s find out more about their unique marriage negotiation and how their relationship can change in the future. Her husband asked her to become a stay-at-home mom.My husband and I have been married for 6 years, and we have 2 children and one on the way. He said that he wanted me to be a housewife and stop working.
I was very disturbed by that, but he explained that it was better for our family and children since he can afford very good living. She asked for half of the company.After a few weeks thinking I told him that I would agree but only if I get 1/2 his company. The look on his face was priceless. He was shocked but said okay. I explained further that the more I stay at home, the less chance I’d have to find a well paying job should we ever divorce. I’d have fewer merits, while he’d stay making more money each year, so I wanted half of the company. Legal and financial implications of their agreement.If we never divorce, then it wouldn’t matter, but should it end, it would be the price of me staying home and raising our children so he could be less worried and stressed out (in his words, less anxious if he knew they were with me rather than with strangers in daycare or nannies). How her friends reacted. When I told my friends, they called me selfish. My best friend was very angry and called me disgusting. So I’m taken aback a little. People took her side.
