[quote=Anonymous]I don't think you are using "drop the rope" appropriately. It is more of a term for a struggle in a relationship, with the analogy being to tug of war (which you can't have if someone drops the rope). I think what you really want is to drop the ball. I would suggest reading this book -- https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Ball-Achieving-More-Doing/dp/1250071739 It talks about glass balls (balls you can't drop without causing harm) versus rubber balls (can drop and pick up later or not at all). I think figuring out what your rubber balls are could help immensely. and OUTSOURCE! You and DH make a lot of money. You should not be folding laundry, cleaning your house, or driving kids constantly. Get a driver babysitter, cut down on activities, and get someone to fold laundry for you.[/quote]
