[quote=Anonymous]OP, you don’t know what other people have going on in their own lives. You had two rough weeks. In the grand scheme of things, that’s nothing. So, you quietly dropping passive hints in hope that someone offers to bring over dinner is a bit much. I’ve found people are more sympathetic when it’s a long term issue that upends the household indefinitely: mom had a stroke; there is a child with cancer in the house, etc. Presumably if you both work full time, you already have childcare lined up.
