[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Sorry I'm meant to say if you do NOT work outside the home.[/quote]
If you do not work outside the home, you should consider household management and day-today tasks your job. Major projects will be a cooperative effort, but the day to day drudgery is all yours. [/quote]

If my husband came home from work to eat the dinner I made for the family and then sat his butt on the couch for the rest of the night while I cleaned the kitchen and put the kids to bed, we would have some issues. [/quote]

The main issue being you need to go out and get a job if you arent willing to do the work at home. [/quote]

I do the vast majority of the work at home. But we are a team, we put in the same working hours and the same play hours. He may be bringing home the paycheck, but he couldn't bring home nearly the size paycheck he does if he didn't have me at home backing him up on childcare issues, etc., so I'm indirectly contributing to the paycheck as well (which he freely acknowledges, so don't bother trying to argue that point).

But fortunately he's not a knuckle-dragger, so you may not be able to relate.[/quote]
