Today, my husband told his parents that he was quitting his job so that he could focus on school. They asked him what he was going to do for money. When I told them that I'd be the one working, they took one look at me and burst into laughter. FML

Work hard so you can laugh at them when you prove them wrong.

Never mind them, OP. As long as you work hard, you can prove them wrong. :)

That's in laws for you, they pretty much all suck.

Show them you're a fierce gatherer/hunter.

Actually, #7, my mom gets along great with my dads family. So it's not ALL in laws.

#7 Said "pretty much" not "every single".

#7 Yep, my father-in-law had a go at me once because I didn't have a 'job'. At that time I was working full time as a Registered Nurse/Midwife, lecturing in Nursing at a university and finishing my honours masters degree. I had one day off a fortnight. I also made more money than my husband. His definition of a job was digging in a field or working as a shop assistant. Some people are brainless.

"Pretty much all" makes it sound like most do, and I don't think that's right either. People complain loudly when they're in a bad way, but few talk about how great their relationship is, cause few like to brag

...pretty much exactly what #1 said.

#17 he probably posted it before he saw #1s comment

My apologies. I didn't read #1's comment.

hey OP, if your husband is all right with that idea, then it's all that matters. Best of luck!

And if you are as well! It's great if you two agree to support each other in your respective projects. Good luck to both of you!

Show it anyway

In laws actually. Time for OP to prove them wrong.

Some people call their in-laws mom and dad too

Still doesn't mean that they're their parents

Don't listen to them. You have your husband to support you and that's all you need. Good luck!

Actually, it's she who is there to support her husband, and in more ways than one.

I meant moral support. And yes, she can support him as well.

Go Girl! Don't let that get you down! :)

Stab them both multiple times and watch them bleed out on the floor as you tell at them "WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?!"

And when you get that 6-figure salary, they'll take one look at you and burst into tears.

You got this OP! It's hard to find someone who will support another while they work for their dreams! Your a great person!

Idk why this got down voted, I was just saying hopefully they can work out the money situation.
