[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you are making a false equivalency.  You are home for one week but have all the supports in place for a WOH life - full day child care, an even split of household responsibilities with your spouse, a system for taking care of your house/life outside of daytime hours (whether that is house cleaners, lawn care people, etc.)  I work part-time, but I don’t really have a lot of leisure time to go to the pool, read, have lunch with friends. I fill my time doing all the things my husband hates to do but I don’t really mind - cooking, cleaning, paying bills, mowing the lawn, managing the kid’s activities, driving them around, picking up the dry cleaning, grocery shopping, doing laundry, etc.  My DH does not mind that all these things are off his plate and I don’t mind that they are on mine.

This makes sense!  Maybe my job is flexible enough that I'm able to do all of those while working.  I'm not being facetious.[/quote]

What is wrong with you, OP? What are you hoping to gain here? WOTH parent here. No defensiveness, just baffled amusement.[/quote]
