Sorry - I often agree with your posts but this is such a MAN thing to say. In the US we typically have NO domestic or family help at all, and when you have small children in the house there are hundreds of things that have to be done, then re-done throughout the day. When my children were small there were things in the house that didn't always get done, and nothing was worse than my husband coming home and saying "what did you do all day?"

I do understand that there are a LOT of things that need to be done at home, perhaps i appreciate it more than other men on GS, partly bcoz i am doing Mom's work at home these days( if u read my journal) and thats why i arranged a full time domestic help for my wife, even though she is not working.

My point was very simple: If u set goals for a day in advance that u feel u CAN do and by end of teh day they are NOT done, then one has to think about time management. Many hard-working parents too, can improve on time management.

As far ur husband, tell him to be with the kids for few days at home and he'll understand, kidding, am sure he does.
