You married badly, sir.  Your wife tells you these things take time. She tells you she can't handle them while also working 15 hours a week. I'm telling you (as are all full time working moms) that we handle all these things plus our jobs.

And nice throw out comment re: walking kids to school being important to your family but not to us.  Cuz guess what? I walk my son to and from the bus stop every day! My office hours are reduced (i make up the last couple hours in the evening or weekends and am just generally really efficient). And i have a SN kid! and i make $350k a year!

So now i'm not underestimating the amount of time it takes to do these things because i literally do them myself.  Do you? Or are you just taking your wife's word for how long it takes it her to do these grueling tasks?  [/quote]

First, not everyone's hours are reduced.  Most people are at their desks till 5 or 6.

Second, if you make 350K, I dunno why you're doing your own laundry.  [/quote]

I make more than that and do my own laundry and clean my own house. It always surprises me when SAHMs with older children don’t do this. [/quote]

I wouldn't want strangers in my home or bathroom for that matter.  We do quite well but choose to do our own cleaning and laundry.

It must be not a very large house, then. Professional cleaners are typically required for 2500+ sq.ft. homes. Otherwise you easily end up spending whole day on quality bathrooms cleaning. Doesn't make sense at all, if you make more than $30/hr at your day job. [/quote][/quote]
