Successful CEO who can't afford a nanny

So this founder & CEO of a successful internet company can't hire a nanny to take care of her child. Instead she (ab)uses her husband to take care of the child. No wonder that after 18 months of being nothing more than a servant to her wife, the husband finally wants a real relationship with a woman.

Yet this movie goes even further and makes him crawling back and apologizing to her and swearing he'll do better in the future.

The movie would be just as bad if the sexes were reversed.

Hilarious misogynist troll. I guess you missed the part where the husband WILLINGLY chose to stay at home full time to take care of their child. Or when Jules mentioned that it was actually HIS idea.

They obviously had relationship issues that needed to be addressed, but Ben was spot on when he said that for Jules to hand the reigns of the successful company she built herself to someone else so her husband wouldn't have another affair just does not add up.

This is Park Slope and those homes were 1-2 million each minimum.
