[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dont see what the problem is here, [b]except that he should be up in the morning. [/b]

DH now works from home 98% of the time. He also has a ton of free time. Sometimes I'm envious because he has time to work out during the day, run errands, take a nap, etc. Because of his flexibility, he does more of the driving for the kids, the errands, the appointments, laundry, dog walking and the shopping. I still do all the finances, life organization, and most of the cooking and cleaning and usually do some of the kid driving, but not as much as DH.

He has not told me to make more money, but I definitely do more travel and have been able to lean in more to work.

I dont see his working from home on what is in reality a half time schedule as him being less ambitious. I think he's just lucky. Gets his full time salary without the grind and commute. I dont understand why OP wouldn't take up her spouse's offer of taking on more kid/house stuff.  My advice would be, ask him to step up and take on more and once you see that its working, then you can step up more. [/quote]

Why? Some people aren't morning people. The kids are old enough to get themselves ready without any parental involvement. They could be those kids who have to get on the bus by 6:30. Why should both parents drag themselves out of bed to say goodbye every morning? [/quote]
