[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is common courtesy to tell your spouse when you are leaving the house. It’s important to tell your spouse when they are being left in charge of children. [/quote]

Agree. DH and I both work from home and will even tell each other if we’re running out when the kids are at school. It’s just polite so the other person doesn’t go looking for you when you’re not home. And sometimes if DH is running out I may ask him to do a quick errand for me if it’s on his way. Plus we only one have 1 car so if it’s not a foot outing then we have to coordinate needing the car. I think it’s odd OP’s husband is trying to assert his independence this way.[/quote]

Do neither of you have calls or meetings? You want your call/meeting interrupted so DH can tell you he’s running to Home Depot? Interesting. [/quote]

Well we can text if the other person is in a meeting. But we also usually talk about the day’s plan over coffee in the morning while the kids get ready for school. “I’m planning to run out for some groceries at lunch time, add anything to the list you’d like me to pick up.” Or “Reminder that I have a dr’s appointment this afternoon so you’ll need to get the kids from the bus stop.” I assumed most couples generally talk about this stuff?[/quote]
