This post is going to come off as offensive to some of you I'm sure, but I'm asking this because I truly don't understand.We have a 6 month old son and my Wife is a stay at home Mom.I work 40-50 hours a week at my job and I also have a side business in which the income is necessary to meet our bills. I work in total anywhere from 60-80 hours a week.I'm starting to get really upset with my Wife because she really is doing nothing around the house. She doesn't clean, she barely does laundry, all of our drawers/closets are empty because she doesn't put our clothes away. We almost never have food in the house as she only grocery shops after I ask her to.Basically, I'm really not understanding what she does all day. I 100% understand that taking care of a baby is a constant grind and a lot of work. But when I take care of our baby (everyday) I somehow manage to find time to clean, vacuum, do chores, answer emails, do laundry, etc. I carry our son around while I do all of these things. At this point, I sometimes feel like I'm a single father with a full-time babysitter.I've tried talking to my Wife but I just get screamed at and told I'm not perfect either. She says that raising a child is just as much work as working 2 jobs and I don't clean or do laundry when I'm at work either.Honestly, I'm at a loss at this point. I really don't get what my Wife is doing with all her free time and I'm getting really tired of being the sole provider for our family. I just don't feel like she's pulling her weight.Any suggestions? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2o7ADxT
