[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This system works great for us. It isn't keeping score, it's designing a system that is fundamentally fair. People who accuse others of keeping score usually aren't pulling their own weight.[/quote] Why does it have to be fundamentally fair? I'm the default parent because I have the more flexible job. If I demanded DH do equal tasks, it would eat up our family weekend time. How is that fair to the family?[/quote] My husband and I are both gone from the house about 50 hours a week for our jobs/commutes, and we bring in about the same income. Neither of us wants to do household tasks. I don't see how you could avoid resentment if it doesn't have to be fundamentally fair. By "more flexible job," do you mean you work fewer hours and make substantially less money ?[/quote]
