[quote=Anonymous]SAHM here. 
I left my job to stay with my kids. Not to do house work though, because it is endless and mind-numbingly boring for me. So DH asked me to get a maid to come to the house. Once in 2 weeks. That did not cut it, so it was once a week. House was still messy - so it was twice a week. Then it was two maids, twice a week. Then it was two maids + me - twice a week.  Dang, the house was still messy. Plus the maids were unreliable.

Then - epiphany! I would need maids to come twice a day to clean the house because we are cooking and eating and bathing and sleeping - more than twice a week.  So in the end - maids are out. And kids and DH are pitching in some. The house is fairly clean or as messy as when the maids were coming.  The difference is that now I am paying myself all that money - and spending it on myself. Regardless of if I have earned that dough or not.

Truth of the matter is - everyone hates to do housework. Do NOT make it about a DH/DW issue. If the entire family can contribute - great. If not clean only what you want to clean.
