[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, my spouse started to majorly slack off on his share of parental duties, and only did the fun stuff leaving me with snow days, dr appts, sick days etc while he haunted around on business travel, leaving hours early to “relax” in the airport lounge. I started saying I have inflexible work commitments, rather than trying to flex constantly for him. 6 mos later and now we’re on an even path. There was way more bickering before, this “white lie” is a lot easier. In fact I’m not even sure it’s a white lie. He tends to take care of his needs first, then family. I am other way around and take care of everyone else’s first, then mine. So this is my way to even it out. We are all happier now. [/quote] My spouse isn't like yours but I will say, RTO made things more even between us on this issue. For basically the same reason.[/quote]
