[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the people saying it is not that hard to make dinner, if it is not that hard, how come it is the end of the world/OP doesn't love her husband/it's time for divorce if the DH has to actually, gasp, be in charge of dinners! It doesn't appear that he is helping with childcare, laundry, etc. [/quote] If they - together - decide that DH is handling dinner then sure, that's fine. What they have is not a cooking problem but a communication problem, both operating with unstated expectations of each other. OP seems to want to focus on her child and continue the marriage as separate individuals living in the same house which seems to be what they did pre-kids. DH seems to have thought that life is changing to a more traditional family (maybe? not sure since no one is saying what they want). Sure some DH's with SAHMs cook dinner because that's what works in their family. But they need to TALK about it. Most SAHMs do cook dinner since they obviously have to prep something for the child(ren) to eat. Ideally you are making real food for everyone not preparing some "kid" food for the children. [/quote]
