It's a story about a married couple I know.
The couple is a dual-income household.
The husband is a regular office worker, so he has a fixed income.
His wife runs a business, and her income fluctuates; sometimes it's there, and sometimes it's zero.
In this situation, they say they raise their two children by each taking responsibility for one.
The husband takes care of the first child, and the wife takes care of the second.
They also handle expenses for their children separately and don't support each other financially. (They contribute equally to shared living expenses...)
However, the wife says her business isn't doing well lately, so she doesn't have any spare money and is struggling to make ends meet.
She says her husband doesn't give her any money and just tells her to figure it out on her own.
I think it's natural for couples who have children and live together to manage their finances together.
After all, both children are theirs...
The wife is sighing these days, saying that she's having a hard time making ends meet.
Are there other couples who live like this?
