[quote=Anonymous]I do both drop off and pick up and there are definitely days that I resent my husband not doing one of them, like most husbands, but it's the reality of our situation. Anyway, to answer your question - it's not too miserable. I leave home 7:30, arrive at work at 8:30, leave work at 5, get home at 6. DH's responsible for dinner most nights, and he gets our kid ready in the morning so that's 45 minutes of home tasks every day that he's putting in, not too uneven with the extra 60 minutes I have of commute time each day due to being the only parent who does drop off and pick up. He also cleans more than I do, so overall I think we're generally even enough. If I had to do drop off, pick ups, cleaning, cooking, laundry, getting the kids ready in the morning etc all by myself, then I would definitely think that's a miserable set up. If you're the driver, fine - then he should pick some other tasks to compensate for you doing this part solo. [/quote]
