If your wife is not a stress, but she gives some stress to you, please read further.

I am not going to discuss all types of stresses from wife, since it varies from wife to wife depending upon their social, educational, economical, and their utopian goals in life.

I am here to discuss the stress of a wife who is educated but not allowed to be working and forced to be a House wife.

Educated House Wife

If your wife is educated and working before marriage, but you or situation stopped her from going to work. In this case, an woman motivated to be a working woman since childhood, can not tolerate such situation. She may be keep quiet for a while, but in long run 'the burden of knowledge/education' disturb her to not to accept her social status as Educated house wife.

In this situation, first she is stressed and unload the stress to you. In simple words, she can not digest her social identification as house wife.

The symptoms of educated house wife stress.

She forces you to look after the kid(s).

She complains that she struggles a lot to look after the kids. So for some a time being(?) you have to look after the kids to relax her. You have to share looking after the kids with her. The only way to escape from this torture is leave to your office early and never return to home early. During weekends you have to take your family to beach, movie, theme park and etc. Have a regular outing in the weekends. This will reduce your wife' stress and ultimately yours.

Higher Studies
Many of the educated house wife afraid to be inactive career wise. So they may try to engage in higher studies. Force you to spend lot of money for her higher studies. This is a monetary stress. When she is not going to work for the rest of the life, what is the use of having higher studies. If you plan to send her job after kids grown up, you can support her higher studies.

Insufficient Money
She always complains that the money you earn is not enough to run the family. It is a indirect way of forcing you to allow her to work. So you need to find somebody else to look after the kids and day to day house affairs. She tries to convince you that there is a scarcity for money and both has to earn to have a comfortable living. The true fact is whatever may be the salary, which will not be sufficient or satisfied.

Simply accept this stress. If you do not have any reliable person to look after your kids and family affairs, you will have more stress by sending your wife to work. To have peace when your wife is working, you need reliable home maker.

The above stress may be subjective and not a common stress to all the husbands.

Covering all the stress is not possible. At the same time the general sex related stress are discussed in other articles here.
