[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And it is killing me. 
I know he does not love me, but all I want is to raise my kids and retire. He has publicly undermined me and on two occasions, other people have seen it, making me look bad. 
The latest, after a discussion with a sibling about how tired I am, after working 60 + erratic hours a week, long commute, I decided that I need more help. 
I can't afford to pay the maid more, so I thought about asking her to shift her focus from my kids' rooms and bathrooms to my laundry. This would mean that [b]my kids who are teens, would have to clean their own spaces. When I told my husband, he looked skeptical and said that the kids have hard lives too, school and sports. [/b]This was typical for him, but nauseating for me. My husband does not know any woman who works as hard as I do. I work harder than he does. It's like he is out to get me. [/quote]

If your teens are not keeping their own spaces clean (which is the bare minimum), you are doing it wrong.  They should not only be doing that; they should be responsible for keeping other parts of the house clean and organized as well.  It is not only helpful to the family as a whole - it is good for them.
