[quote=Anonymous][quote]I am pretty sure if we referred to a SAHM as unemployed all h*ll would break lose here.

Your husband is a full time parent.

70 hours a week of commuting, work, parenting and household tasks isn't much. That is 10 hours a day.

Your husband sounds depressed and you don't appreciate what he does or brings to the home. You sound so resentful that he wants a break after you get home. Again if genders were reversed and a man was complaining that not only did his wife expect a break but he also was still having to cut the lawn and take out the garbage because his SAHM wife wasn't getting it done..

Sounds like you are living a pretty typical life ina home where one parent is the breadwinner and te other is a sahp. Millions of men could write your post![/quote]

But doesn't the SAHP usually grocery shop?  Do the laundry?  Drop off the dry cleaning?  I SAH with four kids, and I normally do all of that.  Sometimes DH goes to the dry cleaner himself, and he is definitely willing to throw in a load of laundry or pick up something at the grocery store, but I think it's pretty common for the SAHP to take care of most household admin tasks.[/quote]
