I agree unless they discussed being a sole earner household and agreed it is what they wanted (usually because they want one parent to stay home and raise children). If they have no children, or no immediate plans to have children, then I would agree they should both be working.
- logfromblammo 9y agoGiven the social climate in the US, if there are no children or plans for children, that removes about 80% of the incentive for getting married. And I certainly don't think that anyone from a younger generation should be buying anyone from an older generation an entire house. The parents or parents-in-law can have a bedroom, pay you rent for it, and as long as they're living under your roof, they can live by your rules. Isn't that what they told you when you turned 18 and you couldn't afford your own house?
