[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I stayed home with the baby, I took 12 credits in college, got A in all classes, did everything around the house except paying bills.  Then I got a FT internship and was still doing everything thing at home.[/quote]

Are  you a woman? Men usually do what they think is important. Brain is wired differently.[/quote]

I think is a very good point. Men do things differently (mine certainly would) but her DH sounds depressed to me.

Mine wouldn’t be interested in story hours and playgroups, but he’d take her to the park a lot (or indoor play place in winter), put her in the stroller and walk or run, maybe take her to the zoo, run errands/shop etc. not exactly the same things I do but he would be out and about with her- not just ignoring her and playing video games KWIM?

My DH doesn’t care much about cleaning either, but would add value in other ways (yard/lawn, projects around the house- painting, repairs, improvements, auto care  etc)- not just play video games.

Mine also doesn’t cook the way I would but would recognize frozen crap isn’t healthy for every meal. He’d probably grill chicken, make steaks, or serve chili most nights with bagged salad or a nuked veggie. Maybe tacos.  (fine as long as I don’t do have to cook it ha! I’d make other stuff on weekends)

I’d still end up doing most of the cleaning but would guilt him into doing the laundry or at least some of it.

To me, her DH isn’t just “doing things differently” like maybe my DH would, he is doing NOTHING. He is either depressed or incredibly lazy. [/quote]
