This is what resentment turns into. She sacrificed all those things in order to give her husband everything he wanted. The resentment forms when the sacrifice isn’t acknowledged. He sees it as mutual. She didn’t. They didn’t properly communicate, for any number of reasons.

She sacrificed all those things in order to give her husband everything he wanted.

We are assuming this is everything he wanted with 0 evidence. In fact, he talks about sacrificing time with his children so that he could provide for the family.

They didn’t properly communicate, for any number of reasons.

I agree with this.

But the bigger factor is babies having babies. This forced a decision on them that meant that some party was going to be unhappy or resentful because the children weren't planned. The truth is, for their own happiness, they should have had an abortion, or to suck up and realize that they both made these choices and it is shitty of her to dump all this on him.
