[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a full time job that is very demanding, even more so now that we have to work at home. My spouse has a job that doesn't require day-to-day work over the summer. Usually our kids would be at camp, but not this summer for obvious reasons. It is a daily struggle to get my spouse to engage the kids and get them out of the house every day. I set up playdates. [b]I suggest going to a pool. I suggest day trips. Most of the time he goes along with what i suggest but takes no initiative do anything[/b]. I'm sick of my kids coming to me and saying they're bored and asking me to play with them. I wish I could but I HAVE TO WORK! I'm just worn out and mad right now. [/quote] Man, that's a lot of daily nagging. Stop nagging your spouse. [/quote] I’m amazed at what people call “nagging.” A spouse who needs these kinds of prompts is failing, and you’re blaming the victim for having the bare minimum of expectations. [/quote]
