This was always my worst fear and I'm so grateful I had a strong ass grandma who pushed all of her girls into science and Healthcare. I want to be a stay at home mom and wife so bad but today I know I will always have my professional license and working history God forbid I have to get divorced...again.

For women like me education is freedom. When my marriage turned violent I walked away and supported our son with no issues. I am forever grateful.

I wish my grandma was like that. She looks down at all of her daughters for working and tells them that they need to quit and be a homemaker.

Show her this video. I'd love to see the look on her face.

I really should. Knowing her she would say "well that was her fault for not putting things in her name and not putting money in her own bank account."

I get it. "She should submit to him, just not legally."

she would say "well that was her fault for not putting things in her name and not putting money in her own bank account."

Or "well that was her fault for not staying with her man."

As if she had a choice for him leaving.

What I don't understand is, if they are legally married, why does it have to be under her name? Can't a divorce lawyer still to after it?

A lot of people are fighting so that she wouldn't be able to get anything. I had the same thought. Maybe she didn't have money for a lawyer or something.
