Mate, it may seem like that on the surface, but even with myself on days, my wife could be at work all day, then come home and I have just had an ordinary day, or the kids have run me around all day, so she helps out with things in the evening routine... this happens to people without PTSD, let alone the extra issues we bring up with PTSD.

I think as long as that line is never crossed by partners, where they do begin to take advantage of their spouses support, because that just raises another whole new issue, which can only be sorted out by discussion generally between the two.

That is really good though that your wife is educating herself as much as possible, as that is one of the key factors to getting past PTSD, and manageing it to cope with normal day situations, and get back to a fairly normal life once again.
