[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a DH and I feel I do my share around the house include most of the childcare, mostly because I have a more flexible work schedule and DW is not good with our special needs kid so I do the bulk of caring there. DW does have higher cleaning standards bordering on OCD. For example, she will wipe the kitchen counters several time WHILE I AM STILL COOKING. I'd wait until I was finished and wipe the counter once. Of course she's doing "more work" but is it really necessary to wipe the counters mid-meal prep?[/quote] No, but I'm on a site where women are complaining that the men read while the kids are at the pool and can't even watch the child for five minutes while the wife uses the bathroom even when asked. It's hard to generalize but if I could just from overall experience, I don't see many women completely incapable of taking care of a house and kids to a minimal level of competency. Some are terrible, but generally they are able to with some degree of success. There are whole groups of men that just lose it around the house and with the kids. Dads not capable of watching their kids for 2 minutes at a pool. Others not capable of washing a dish ever. Opening up five containers of applesause rather than eating one at a time. The level of dysfunction is greater with the males and probably the level of OCD is larger with the females related to household tasks.[/quote]
