[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should he work if you won’t?[/quote] OP here - my view is, why should I do everything I do now plus a job? I would be insane to agree to that. He’s not going to magically do half. [/quote] You shouldn't. He needs to do 1/2 the cooking, 1/2 the cleaning, and help with homework, kids activities and more. Tell him to start magically doing half and when he does it consistently for 3 months you will go back to work. Remind him when you go back to work you will not have sick leave or vacation so he will have to take off work for every school holiday, every sick day and every emergency that comes up until you can build up some leave. Also, tell him he needs to find before/after school care for the kids and arrange for summer camps for all weeks in the summer he cannot take off to be with them.[/quote]
