[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]not OP. but this happens in my house as well. We both make about the same money now.

he's just not good at the life admin tasks, so i do them all. i am actually very good at this and one of my jobs previously was as an EA to a pretty well known washington person, so i naturally excel here.

i dont have a lot of patience. our trade off is that DH does most of DS5's physical daily care, feeding, washing, dressing, etc...

it works for us. [/quote]

Same. I handle every admin task. He does all the labor - groceries, laundry, dishes, cleaning, doctor appts (although I will do them if my work schedule is better that day, school drop off, etc. Neither of us really want to trade.

Important thing is him understanding how much work the admin stuff is. He will never be good at it so he needs to do other stuff to compensate.[/quote]

Is it really that much work?  
I have four kids, including two teenage boys, so I know that it’s different, but I feel like that stuff (groceries, laundry, cooking, cleaning, dishes, school drop-off, after school activities) is most of my life outside of work.  
I would say that I spend about 5% of the time I spend on this stuff on admin stuff.

No wonder DH and I always feel like we [b]can’t get our poop in a group.[/b]  [/quote
