[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and yeah, I'm realizing I offended my spouse.  I am the one who asked DH to come home an hour later than usual.  He seemed offended and couldn't understand why, and I didn't want to answer specifically because I knew it would only make it worse and I didn't want to hurt his feelings.   So I was just very vague.

Basically I suck at multi-tasking - so while I enjoy playdates, managing a house full of young kids, setting the table, cooking dinner, keeping an eye on them, getting them fed, cleaning up after dinner and all the toys, and maintaining some order while letting them have some fun is about my max of what I can handle.  If he came home at his usual time, he would have come home just as I was getting dinner on the table and getting the kids to clean up and come to the table - the most crazy time for me.[/quote]

The problem isn't that you aren't good at multi-taking.  The problem is you have both a bad relationship with your husband and an incredibly unhelpful husband.  You should be able to talk to him about this.  And he should be able to come home and be a useful parent.  Why couldn't he come home and clean up the toys while the kids ate?  Or even just gone upstairs and not been helpful?[/quote]

Np here. If my husband came home at that time, he would be helping me set the table, watching the kids, offering drinks for my guests or I would have him cook the food while I entertain. I mean we eat dinner everyday. It isn’t like I just serve him. He helps get dinner on the table.[/quote]
