[quote=Anonymous]Do you sometimes feel like you can't complain about things to your husbands because they are working so hard to provide for your family?

My DH makes good money (probably close to $400k this year) and I make much less ($60k).  Due to this imbalance I end up being the default parent (which is expected and was previously communicated between both parties) and do most of the stuff around the house.  I am actually fine with this since I WAH and can do all of the cooking, laundry, basic cleaning and kid stuff while I am at home.  I do all pick ups, drop offs, doctor appointments, bedtimes, etc.  DH works A LOT right now and I know that he is making sacrifices so that we can provide for our family and hopefully provide a good future for our children.

There are some times though when I feel like I just can't complain about the menial things I do around the house or with my job because I don't want to both my DH or annoy him with trivial things.  He wakes up early (5:30) and gets home late (8pm usually) and then lately has been working until bed time.  He tries to see the kids before bed every night but sometimes doesn't make it home until after they go to sleep.

Do any other wives feel this way?
