[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]7/31. I don't parent my spouse.[/quote]
But does your spouse parent? My issue would be being home alone with the kids.[/quote]

OP here. I should have clarified that this is the gist of my question. How often are you cool solo parenting for your spouse’s solo social activities. [/quote]

DP.  As long as we coordinate, as much as he wants (or as much as I want). I think it’s a bit weird that people split their parenting time, like you have Saturday morning, I have Saturday afternoon, whatever. Our baseline is that we parent together every night and weekend. If someone wants to go out or go to the gym or whatever, it’s not a big deal. [/quote]

I don’t think everyone’s baseline is that the whole family sits at home every evening and weekend.  We have friends over, go to parties, work, visit family, take kids to activities, etc.  
It’s fine with me if DH wants to spend Saturday morning golfing, but he’s got to let me know beforehand so that he can get a sitter if I need to work or arrange rides if two kids need to be in separate places at the same time.   And really, if he started doing it every weekend, it would get to me.
