How to get a man to step-up

Rosey2376 · 02-08-2013, 02:16 PM

Any ideas?

I have a ton of work to do, and I still have to fit in the housework, the school run, the organising and all the other mum stuff.
But the man of the house just moans that I'm a tad stressed and, well, witchy. Which I am. Cos I'm tired.

Any creative ideas for getting him to step up his game and help take on some of the mum stuff? Nagging sure aint working.

If any of his complaints involve you not being here for him then suggest if you had some help you'd have more time. Make a list of all the things you have to do in a day with appx times it would take for each one...don't shortchange yourself either.

Don't know if it will help him to work, but at the very least it'll help you maybe streamline what you have to do, too.
