I have been having finacial issues as of late and I think most of my feelings come from the fact that marriages just are not what they used to be. Women are encouraged to stay independant because of the chance the husband might leave. I personally do not think anyone is as capable of taking care of me better then me. I don't like to feel like I am at the mercy of someone else, and when she is dependant on you she is at your mercy. I am not saying you would use it as a tool to control, but there is always that posibility and nobody likes to be in that position

If she is not comfortable with the situation of not having her own money let her go out and make a few extra bucks. It is not about you, it is about her. As long as it does not take away from the children, I see no issue.
