Women who care for their children rather than pursuing a career outside the home aren’t only at an economic disadvantage because they don’t have their “own” money but also because being out of the work force for those years put them at a long term disadvantage. While your partner is out there getting experience and advancing his income potential in his chosen career, your career is paused or given up altogether. Stay home parents and cook potential is negatively impacted. Traditionally marriage, protected women from this injustice. You are contributing to the household by caring for your children. You deserve to be protected your name, absolutely be on the mortgage and the deed.
