[quote=Anonymous]Uh, you aren't a SAHM. You're a WOHM married to a WOHD who is not doing his fair share. If you aren't happy with the balance in your relationship, then you need to work with your DH to step it up. Ask for what you need and work out a plan to split the childcare more fairly. Keep paying the cleaners if you can afford it because there's no reason not to. Tell him what you need (you do drop-off, he does pick-up? You alternate days? He makes lunches? etc). Let's give him the benefit of the double and start with the premise that he simply doesn't know what is needed and would do more if asked (nicely). Then let him do whatever you have asked him to do however he wants to do it, without asking that he do it your way (i.e. he wants to feed them pizza for lunch and you would usually make a four-course meal? Fine, he feeds them pizza -- it's his role now).[/quote]
