[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you’re both working- you each should get a weekend day to sleep in. I’m on maternity leave and I sleep in Monday- Friday. Dh gets the weekend. [/quote]

This is OP, I’m a SAHM so I don’t “work.” It’s not a hard job but the hours can be punishing and there is no weekend. [/quote]

Hi! this was me 16 years ago.  Now I'm divorced! because this kind of attitude is deeply ingrained in some men, and very, very hard to turn around.  No matter how much the wife -- it's always the wife -- "communicates" and clearly, calmly states her needs, and negotiates alternate weekend days blah blah blah.

You can Have a Talk and negotiate for a next weekend brunch with friends ... but if the dad is an entitled prick deep down, you'll just have the same struggles for years.

If dad is simply clueless and sees the light after explanation by mom (my brother in law fits into this group), then yes, things will change and the marriage can stay healthy.

OP only you know what sort of guy you married.  I married a pampered entitled weenie who believes he is a better human than I am, because as everyone knows, working in a law firm is superior to taking a career break when the kids are young.[/quote]
