Man Threatens to Separate Finances After Wife Refuses to Buy Daughter Earrings (1)

Unsplash | Hà Hà

A man has taken the drastic step of separating his finances from his wife's after she refused to buy his daughter a pair of earrings as punishment for staying up late. He believes his wife's rule of having the kids 'earn' their stuff is unfair, and that their daughters are well-behaved and do not need to earn every single thing daily. He believes his daughter is a good kid and deserves to be treated as such. The situation has caused tension in the family, with the man's father-in-law accusing him of not providing for his family. The man has said he will attend therapy with his wife to fix the problem, but until then their finances will be separated.
