[quote=Anonymous]I read some self-help book about marital problems and it talked about the problem of underinvestment. Your dh is underinvested in your marriage/family. He doesn't do anything and because he doesn't, he doesn't see anything that needs to be done (or should be done) by him. Basically, the family is working fine without him so why would he bother? The solution is for him to become more invested. If you died tomorrow (just an example) would he rise to the occasion? Probably. You need to facilitate less and give him less and make more of it his responsibility. that also means giving up control over what he does.... [/quote]
