[quote=Anonymous]I was reading the thread about what nice things you remember about your mother and I have to admit that my kids would ahve nothing to say about me. 
I work very long hours and have a tremendous commute, main bread winner. DH has a minor disability and is not very helpful around the house.
I have to do all the hard stuff, while he takes the kids to fun places and buys buys buys them everything they want, with the money I earned.
Kids complain that I am not fun because when I get home, I push the homework which has not been done, I get dinner ready, and I ask them to take a bath and brush their teeth, which DH never asks. I don not buy much because they have too much, or maybe too much has been spent.
I never have the time to do special things without feeling rushed. I feel stuck because DH will never be able to for instance clean the garage (I do that), vacuum the cars (my job), floss their teeth (me again), comb their hair (me and they hate that).
Tired of kids telling me that I am not the fun parent. [/quote]
