Rant: Stay at home parents

[Swirls]

I would gladly switch places with my wife.

Talk is cheap. Do it for 3 months and get back to me. Three kids is a crazy insane amount of work and stress. Your wife works harder than you do.

The [expletive] she does. She doesn't lift a [expletive] finger when I get home. I do all the cooking, cleaning and child care when I get home every day after working a 10 hr day. I get the kids baths, read them books and get them in bed every night, and then I clean the [expletive] house and I do 95% of the laundry every weekend. All my wife does when I am at work is take the oldest to school, and keep the other two from destroying the house, and then sits on the [expletive] computer all day - I know, her mother lives with us during the winter and she told on her. If you don't have personal knowledge of the inner working of my house, then shut the [expletive] up. If I was a stay at home dad, I would have more time to get the things done that I do every night. I also take my 3 girls out on my own just about every weekend that my wife works (and she rarely works on the weekend any more,) and I really don't have much problem. I would stay at home with them in a heart beat.

That's because your [expletive] whipped & she treats you like a slave, not a husband.

Yes she does. It is my sacrifce to make sure my kids are taken care of. My kids come first.

But you're still a slave that can't clean the counter properly.

Not to mention his shoddy eggs.

I think you should tell her this.

Kind of a catch-22. Removing your own genitals is probably pretty manly, but...

There are lazy parents like there are lazy computer programmers (raises hand), lazy teachers, lazy doctors, lazy whoever. The job of a stay at home parent difficult and meaningful.

But my wife still likes my penis, about the only thing she likes about me. I am going to start holding it as ransom until she changes her ways.

I mean... that could work. Women definitely can't find a substitute for a penis.

Which brings us back to the "Cats" thread.


BTW, my mom was a stay at home mom with 8 kids. I'd dig ditches for a living before I'd take on that job!!
