Luckily that isn't the only reason I stay with him.
Continuing to keep busy and work is actually extremely helpful. Plus, what I make a provider is more than what a schoolteacher makes so I am more than able to provide for all of my bills myself so it would be stupid to quit.
You would be surprised at what you're capable of doing when YOU are the provider for your family.
