Must a Canadian wife obey her husband in his refusal of her working in infant care, despite her severe need for money, or should she accept the offer?

A woman is not obligated to obey her husband if he prevents her from leaving the house while withholding her rightful maintenance. She is permitted to go out to seek sustenance for herself and her children. However, if he provides her with her rightful maintenance and accommodation, then she must obey him at that time.
