OP here. Meaning accept I am solely responsible for the mental load?[/quote]

Yes your mental load is your responsibility.  [/quote]

So my husband has absolutely no responsibility to make sure his kids receive gifts from Santa, there is a Christmas tree and groceries to eat on the 25th?

You’re suggesting this should all be on me?[/quote]

Your husbands mental load is his responsibility.

If your mental loads are at capacity, [b]prioritize the groceries[/b].[/quote]

Why am I expected to be in charge of the groceries…why can’t he be?[/quote]

I'm not sure this helps you, but DH has weaponized incompetence and our child would probably die or definitely not thrive under his care. So I buy groceries and cook good meals for me and DS, but because DH refuses to participate, he goes to KFC. His choice.[/quote]

He probably did this after being henpecked and criticized on earlier attempts to take initiative. [/quote]

There’s a reason men adopt “happy wife, happy life”. [/quote]

Yes. As a dude, so much easier and better for everyone if you just do what you’re told. You learn that fast. [/quote]
