[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you tell him all of this? Does he understand the discrepancy?[/quote]

Yes. He just says he gets too tired. But I’m tired, too. [/quote]

NP. What is your reaction to this? If my DH did this to me, I would yell at him - like real yelling. I would go on a tirade about how I’m tired too and he is being lazy, and I would probably start crying legitimate tears in there. I’m not saying this is the right way to do things, but it gets his attention….[/quote]

Yelling isn’t an effective way to solve any problem.[/quote]

Really? Because sometimes I think it’s the only way men know you’re actually fed up.[/quote]

It doesn’t matter which gender or age, yelling shouldn’t be acceptable, find healthy ways to communicate and set up better a example for your children.[/quote]

[b]Well I think OP can communicate “in a healthy way” til she’s blue in the face, but her DH is still going to be sitting on the couch not helping her.[/b] I don’t necessarily mean scream at him, but speak sternly, like an authoritative person who deserves respect. I think OP (and tons of other women on dcum) just ask their husbands calmly why they didn’t do the dishes, husband says I was tired, and wife lets it drop. I would not let it drop. Your DH responding/treating you like that is honestly worse than yelling.[/quote]

If DH doesn't want to be "yelled at" he should respond appropriately the first 100 times she asked calmly. [/quote]
