[quote=Anonymous]OP, you're talking about the mental load of the household and family. It's a lot, and kids add even more (I say this as a now empty nester who STILL carries the mental load for our family). You need to discuss this with your partner in these terms, only if there's something you are willing to hand over. For example, birthday parties (attending and your kids parties), sick kids, family vacations, doctor appointment, entertaining, school (PTA and teacher meetings and f/u with homework), whatever YOU are willing to let go of. Amd, you have to let go of it, even if he doesn't do it as fast as you would, as efficiently as you would, or as inexpensively as your would. Decide what you are willing to let go of, and have the discussion with your spouse [/quote]
