[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A green sweater is now considered a mental load.  You people exhaust me. [/quote]

Well, if it's such an easy task, why doesn't the husband deal with it?
Oh, wait, because it all magically takes care of itself somehow.[/quote]

Because if OP was honest her husband has his own mental load of running the household it's just not the menial make work crap of having a shirt in a certain color. [/quote]

Oh yeah, let’s hear all about the husband’s mental load list for his family, kids and wife.

Leave out the cliches, focus on what he actually did/does, not what he wishes would happen (ie kid gets into college, kid makes varsity team, kid cleans her room, kid spends time with grammmy). [/quote]

Not PP but here is a short list of things DH does

1.   Takes care of all house maintenance stuff, including watching YouTube videos to fix things or something breaks 
2.  Books all of DS' appts and handles any paperwork needed.   Will take to some of them but I work 3 days a week so it's easier for me to take him 
3.  Handles all registration and paperwork for sports, activities, and camps 
4.   Cooks/grocery shops at least half the week 
5.  We discuss Christmas and DH buys some of the gifts 
6.  Handles all gifts for his side of the family
7.   Shops, preps, and cooks holiday meals
8.  Does a lot of cleaning around the house 
9.  Makes sure the driveway is clear of snow/ice when I leave/get back from work

I could go on but that's a good place to start.  [/quote]
