I don't understand how you can just live your life completely dependent on someone else I guess?

just because a wife stays home doesn't mean she is completely dependent

Did you just look for a single sentence in the OP's post to find something to argue your point? Your post is completely irrelevant to the thread. When you read the post/thread it is obvious he is talking about financial dependency as the stay at home wife in this case does not have any external income.
