Wendy doesn't seem to understand that she can't afford her lifestyle. It's fine for her to want to spend as much time as possible with her daughter and be a stay at home Mom but she can't afford that right now. Plenty of kids have been raised by 2 working parents and they ended up just fine.

I believe that they did find a way for them to afford for Wendy to be a stay-at-home mom. He got a job that pays a bit better and they found a less expensive house to rent. And if she can pick up photography shoots that can put some butter on the bread. Everyone has their personal priorities and I'm glad that she was pushed to think outside the box to come up with a way to preserve hers.

As a nanny I used to work for mums like this. Completely jealous of anyone other than themselves bonding with their babies. Even their partners.

[@Ndstars1]

Yeah, a greedy selfish mom. Everything mommy does is perfect and there's no other way than mommy's way. Then the dad feels like everything he does is wrong so eventually stops trying. Then the mom gets mad that the dad doesn't help more with the kids.

Do you have any tips on how to be a nanny. Is there websites or apps where I can first start

[@chubbybunny6975]

My sister had the same issue being a nanny. Had a French mom that was the biggest helicopter parent in the world. Gives in to everything the child cries about, goes and sleeps in her kid's bed with her EVERY SINGLE NIGHT, couldn't keep her out of her sight for more than 2 hours, etc. They moved away for her husband's job, and she literally quit hers to be a stay-at-home mom despite not being able to afford it because even though my sister was wonderful with their child, she couldn't stand the idea of someone other than herself looking after her child. Yet she had the gal to complain about in-laws wanting to be involved in their granddaughter's life calling them "clingy".

He said its a really great stress relief for him after working hard all week. Why should she be with her daughter 24/7 and deprive him of a few hours with the daughter? The kid won't get to know the father at that rate. Then she whinged all Sunday, the little time they had together as a family. Having said that, she's a talented lady who would be wasted in cleaning or in retail. She needs develop her photography business. I'm glad the couple worked it out in the end with their own ideas.

Best thing to come out if this episode is that Dan quit smoking. ❤

Our culture often judges and tears down moms while having very little understating of their individual histories or circumstances and offering very little support. It doesn't surprise me to see you taking part in it and even be proud about it.

Wendy is in total denial about the situation when she has decided to be a stay at home mum, as Dan himself can't make sufficient income on his own and she won't even pull her portion of the weight to financially support the family. Even if Dan works a second job while Wendy stays at home to care for Rowan, it's not fair to Dan as he's totally cut off from his daughter due to financial obligations. In Canada there's a very high percentage of households that are raising children with 2 working parents (dual income), because of now the high housing costs (in relation to the income) and some even had to have family member from an elderly generation to provide for childcare (3-generational households), again for economic reasons even with generous incomes.

I desperately wanted to be a stay at home mom. I can understand why she’s so adamant about wanting to stay home with her baby. This is the first episode I’ve seen where the couple doesn’t get the full $5,000 (who else got recommended this because of Financial Audit?). I like that this episode was a realistic look at what it would be like for a couple to be unwilling to drastically change their behavior. I hope that Gail’s threat/promise of welfare/divorce/never seeing your daughter because you’re working so much were enough to give this couple a reason to reconsider their current situation

A lot of the couples didn't get $5,000, and one couple got only $500 because of their really lousy attitudes and them giving up on nearly all the challenges.

If they didn't want to listen to Gail, then why sign up for the show?

OMG Wendy's the worst

Gail is a saint! If I were Gail, I would have just got that camera to slap the woman (Wendy) in the face with it for her stanky attitude towards Gail.
