Things that are wrong from the beginning don't all of a sudden become right when you marry. Once the wedding is over all that is left is what was there from the beginning.
Sometimes we think that saying I DO means that we should expect the better first before the worst, And this does not always happen. Having a successful marriage requires two things .
1. Marrying the right person, and Being the right person.
The reality is what makes us grow is experience, and having to learn that our action or lack thereof, has consequences.
If you don't allow him to grow up on his own I am afraid he won't my dear.
What you can do is communicate to him what you expect to happen, and explain to him the importance of providing for the family.
Be honest with your expectations, and if he doesn't want to change then you have to have Plan B.
Are you working right now yourself? Was he the only one working? Do you have help from your family?
