[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Would you prefer a situation where you are both working full-time but he does an equal share of the kid/home stuff? I[/b]f so, my suggestion is to have a sit down where you list out all the home/kid tasks and divvy them up with clear lines of responsibility. Then, stick to your half of the list. If he drops the ball on his stuff, let the ball drop. It will be painful for a little while, but it is the only thing that leads to change in my experience. Right now, he is getting the best of both worlds--you are earning full-time income and doing all the kid stuff. He has no incentive to change anything. So, you need to set some boundaries and cut off the gravy train.[/quote] Honestly no, I'd rather work part time. Actually I'd really rather be a SAHM, especially through this Covid time, but I know there is no chance in hell of that ever happening. [/quote] What’s your HHI split? (BTW I agree that part time is best because with a husband that’s a big a jerk as yours, you might end up wanting a divorce.) [/quote]
