[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't do it OP. I did this with my DH, he was miserable at work, I was killing myself at work and home and not getting help from him because he had no energy left after his draining day; I said he could try staying home, he said he wanted to try, but now he is home, doesn't like that either, doesn't like doing house work, complains I don't help out in the morning (because I'm getting ready for work) and we just lost a ton of income.
I'm still the default parent, you will be too. And it will make you even more resentful [/quote]
Yep.. unless the sahp is willing to do most of the home stuff willingly, not begrudgingly, I don't recommend letting that person sah.   When my DH wasn't working for a few months, he got a taste of being a sahd and didn't like it.  I wanted one of us to be a sahp to make it easier on the family and was willing to let him do it, but he didn't like it and wasn't good at it.  Not that I'm great at it, but pay more attention to things than he does.[/quote]
