[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most marriages are like this, at least on this board. [/quote]
Not just on this forum.

Men are much more laid back about the house and kids.   As long as the kids are fed something and have clothes on (irrespective of whether it's appropriate for the weather), they think they should get a million points for bare minimum effort.

DH is like this in some things. He cooks mostly healthy, but he did things like give our 4 yr old expired peanut butter (like a year expired) even though I told him not to. "It's fine".  DC threw up while I was trying to handle our 8mo. old.

I was the one who handled all the dr's appointments for our kids while working FT. Now that DH is retired, I make him handle all of that for our youngest (oldest is in college and handles their own appointments).   I can tell DH gets frustrated at having to deal with it all.  Um. yea, buddy, I did all of  that for two kids  and managed their school stuff, camps, play dates... while working FT. You're retired, and only have to handle one kid's medical appointments.

I can go on and on about sh(t like this.  But, we've been married for 20 years, and our youngest is about to leave for college.    Whew. I'm so done.
