A wife has the right to demand a home separate from her husband's family. A separate home is one where the wife has a suitable and self-contained portion of the dwelling with its own facilities. A wife does not have the right to demand her husband reduce the expenses of their children. However, she does have the right to demand that he spend on her and treat her kindly.
