[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am pretty sure if we referred to a SAHM as unemployed all h*ll would break lose here.

Your husband is a full time parent.

70 hours a week of commuting, work, parenting and household tasks isn't much. That is 10 hours a day.

Your husband sounds depressed and you don't appreciate what he does or brings to the home. You sound so resentful that he wants a break after you get home. Again if genders were reversed and a man was complaining that not only did his wife expect a break but he also was still having to cut the lawn and take out the garbage because his SAHM wife wasn't getting it done..

Sounds like you are living a pretty typical life ina home where one parent is the breadwinner and te other is a sahp. Millions of men could write your post![/quote]

Employment is defined as "the state of having paid work".  A SAHM is a mother.  She is unemployed.  Being a SAHM is simply a lifestyle choice.

If you actually read anything the OP posted you would see that even though her husband is unemployed he is not doing anything in the household.  A SAHM typically takes care of the household duties.  If the husband wants to be a SAHP then he should be taking care of household duties.

OP your husband is maybe depressed however this is grossly unfair that you have to work full time and take care of the entire household as well.  I would be sitting down and having one hell of a conversation with your husband.  It's time he picked up the slack or goes to see a doctor for a check up.[/quote]
