[quote=Anonymous]I’m showing up to this thread 45 pages in, but I have some practical advice. I also handle most of the admin stuff involving kids, but I’ve also “assigned” several things to DH permanently, not as a one-off, and it makes things so much better. For example, DH does all the orthodontia appointments, all the shopping at (whatever store—in our case, Costco), pays all the household bills, does all the laundry, etc. You don’t want to have to negotiate these things every week or month. Just hand some things off forever and absolve yourself of all responsibility for them. Unless your DH is a total loser, which he probably isn’t, he will get them done. For us, this started as a teary, frustrated conversation 15-plus years ago. It’s now just part of our marriage, which is a very good one.[/quote]
