[quote=Anonymous]Ok, I'm not going to get into the whole debate about a SAHM's workload or whether it's harder than it was 10n years ago.  Admittedly, my only experience with SAHM-ing is from my maternity leaves.

My issue with OP's attitude is the whole "I'll take care of me, to hell with him" approach. That just isn't conducive to a happy marriage - whichever side it comes from! With one or more small child(ren), every adult in the household is going to be doing more than they used to. Every adult feels as though they've taken on 150% ... and they are usually all right. There just isn't time for inefficiencies  - you need to learn to work together if you are going to survive.

Each person doing their own shopping and cooking?  It just isn't efficient. Those kinds of efforts need to be combined. Fending for yourselves just doesn't work anymore. Throwing a patato in the oven for yourself? Add and extra one for your husband ... or better yet, add 3 or 4 extra for leftovers the rest of the week. Trust me, learning to be efficient is well worth the effort.  [/quote]
