My husband feels it is controlling of me if I expect him to work full-time. He now recieves $500 mth for ssi for a bad back years ago but I know he is extreemly capable of doing things that are not real hard on his back and earning more money to help support family. I work full-time but I don't htink it is fair for me to carry most the load (we have kids too). I call it a reasonable expectation. What do you think? He is constantly pawning things for us to pay bills-now he is looking for a job but he only wants to work part-time.

There is more than a money problem going on here, what happened to the communication, and the partnership? Sure sucks, with all that responsibility, but when the state says your disabled, often a psychological story starts in the brain, as well as the fear of pain. Perhaps counseling? Its a streach, but with out his partial contribution, wouldn't it just be worse?

Can you see yourself in a situation where your spouse is completly disabled? What do you do ? There are other services taht the state or the department of human services can help you in your situation. Have you looked into this? There are restrictions that are placed on individuals by the state services when they are disabled or partially disabled. Look into this before you jepordize the assistance that is avaliable to your family at this point in time. Good luck.
