[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to stand up for yourself. 1. If both of you can’t have a home office, he cannot have a home office. Open that door and send the kids in there! 2. Stop doing his laundry. [/quote] This!!! So much this to 1 and 2. And I’m someone who does the laundry for my whole family and always has regardless of how many hours I was working (over the course of our marriage I’ve done everything from 80 hours per week pre-kids to staying home for one year at one point). I had to go part-time shortly after schools closed. My husband was 100% on board with it but was also 100% supportive of trying to come up with creative ways to better enable me to stay full-time if that was my preference. Show him how much you do by not doing some of it. Starting with his laundry!! And yes, demand that you switch off who gets the office and who gets to sit with the kids![/quote]
