I so desperately want to clap back at her for that horrible comment re ALove but I also quite desperately do not wish to be blocked.
It’s verging on the sort of comment a domestic abuser would make. It’s been said on here before, but if the gender roles were reversed there’d be an outcry. DV from females to their male partners is rare but it still exists and it’s just as terrible as any other form of DV.
As others have remarked, it’s blatantly ridiculous given ALove now HAS a job and earns his ‘own’ money. But, even if he didn’t- she has been upfront (even braggy) about his leaving his career to be a ‘full time stay at home Dad’ to enable her to launch her multi-hyphenate dreams. Non-financial contributions to a household (care labour, household admin, child rearing, cooking and cleaning, etc) are assessed as being equal to financial ones, at least for the purposes of property settlement post-separation. As wel they should be, because even if industrial capitalism doesn’t pay a wage for it, HOUSE WORK IS *WORK*
ALove has worked his arse off in that arena and continues to do so. Who picks up the slack and has the kids all these weekends she’s flaffing about attending events out of town or painting the kids’ bedrooms so they can’t possibly stay? How DARE she suggest he hasn’t even earned two dollars in his own right
