[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I manage 75% of our home life (one kid). He handles bedtime. He manages most of our finances, home repairs, lawn, dishes, trash and that's about it. Everything else is on me. [b]We have a housekeeper, nanny and regular babysitters so that I get some support.[/b] I knew what I was getting myself into when we got married and knew that I would be the default parent. [/quote]

LOL.  "Some" support?  You don't do squat![/quote]

God, it's never enough for you people. Not enough work, too much work, he can't be a good partner if he's around too much, he can't be a good dad if he's working too much, she's a bad mom if she hires out everything, she's dumb because why wouldn't you hire someone to help with all this money? Etc., etc. This thread is hilarious.[/quote]

But to be fair, that PP didn't do squat!

I saw the humor in it too! 75% after the nanny, housekeeper, and regular babysitters leave what? About 15 minutes a day to tend to household/childraising duties. Tedious for realz, guyz!

This is the 75% poster. Thanks for telling me I don't do squat. We have a nanny so I can work full time, but you'll probably tell me my DH is a terrible big law partner for letting his wife work. The housekeeper is so I don't have to spend 4 hours cleaning on the weekend and can rest after working a full week. The babysitter is so I don't have to take a baby with me while I run errands.

Pp, if I were you I’d drop this and move on. You are not helping your case. Sorry for your tough life.[/quote]

Yea I agree you’re just digging your hole deeper and deeper.  Let’s tie this all together:  you don’t watch the kids, you don’t clean the house, but you do run errands.   Oh, while somebody else watches the baby, that is.

Got it.  That 75 percent must be exhausting![/quote]
