[quote=Anonymous]2 WOH parents plus 2 young kids means your family needs 2 functioning adults. Sit down and tweak the current pickup / dropoff if you need too (maybe you can drop off on his WAH day, and work later snd he can pickup?). The stick to the schedule. He drops off in the am? Do your part to get the kids up, dressed and fed (whatever that is), then walk out the door on time (without the kids). Period. Unless he has a great excuse (actively vomitting comes to mind), you answer pleas to handle the morning drop off by saying, basically, #SorryNotSorry. I can't be late to work today. Then kiss the kids and leave. Also-- there is no reason for you to do all cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. once again: you need 2 participating adults. In our house, DH cooks, I do laundry and the cleaner comes every other week. Plus lots of smaller stuff that gets divided based on our schedules and preferences. YMMV, but the final outcome should not be you doing it all. [/quote]
