[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You haven't said anything that lets us offer helpful feedback.

What responsibility are you shouldering? How big a paycheck? What access do you have to the money he makes? ARE you expecting too much? Can't say without knowing what you expect. [/quote]

He is an active father but sucks at anything house related. I do all the shopping, cooking, managing outsourcing crews, 95% of the childcare, scheduling/taking kids to appointments, handling childcare.

I work part time making 60k. He works full time and makes 400-500k a year.

I have full access to our money.

[b]I just want him to step up more with the household labor.[/b] He has said he is busy working to support our family to give me the ability to stay home. [/quote]

You need to manage your expectations op. Or you two should have both better managed each other’s expectations. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses and a husband who earns less money is not guaranteed to be doing more around the house.

What do you want your husband to do around the house? With 460-560K income, you can afford a full time nanny or housekeeper who will help with big chunk of what you now do. Once you find a person who you click with (and that can be some trial / error), that person will make your life significantly easier and will be more effective than trying to force your dh to scrub toilets or cook.

Is your dh against hiring full time person? [/quote]
