[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure why you put up wit this. I do the lions share of "administrative" stuff when it comes to the kids (making appts, buying clothes etc) but he does all the cooking, yard work, and stuff around the house. It ends up being a really even split. It's never been a point of discussion; it just happene[b]d. Not sure how much it has to do with the fact that he was raised by a no-nonsense single mom[/b] or that we didn't marry until he was in his early 40s and he'd been living alone for 20 years. I wouldn't put up with anything less than an even split. [/quote]

Yes, that absolutely has everything to do with it. He is rare. [/quote]

This is my DH, too, almost to the letter. He was raised by his, at one time, single mom. Even when she remarried, she always worked outside of the home (she's a CPA). My DH does all the cooking and grocery shopping, home repairs, bill paying, kids' doctors appointments, and half of the cleaning and childcare. I do the admin stuff (calendar maintenance and most appointment making, kids' purchases, etc.), home organization, and tidying up He hates laundry so that's 10% me. I'm sorry that his parents divorced but they were much happier apart and I guess it really paid off for me.[/quote]
