Has anyone witnessed or is currently witnessing the following case:
With two parents actively working, should one of them pretend to be a jester and not care about the financial support of the family?
In my case, which I have witnessed for many years, the case is even more striking. The parent in question (my father) in the prime of his life, especially in the 90s, I do not remember hearing once say - "I paid for electricity, water, telephone, etc. And I say this as the son of a parent who then he had a steady income (sole trader), and all the yoke was carried by my mother, even filling the refrigerator and raising two children.
Even stranger in the case of a husband who I do not remember taking his wife, and to this day, to a restaurant, a trip, etc. This husband did not encroach on his wife, had no credit, did not lick alcohol, he did not gather with avers to play cards, backgammon, or watch matches. He only gave money for his cigarettes.
The curiosity after all that has been written so far is that my parents are still together after 40 years of marriage. And even with their small pensions already, there is no change in sharing the financial burden !!!
It will be interesting to hear your opinion about such family relationships, and someone can describe a similar parent/spouse.
