Thank you Alan. I do appreciate your opinion regardless of whether or not we see eye to eye for sure. In terms of raising kids, I think every year it gets tougher because somehow it’s harder to teach the sense of responsibility for your own well-being (and that of your family unit’s) than it was for you and me. I agree my husband probably needs some social support other than me and I have encouraged him to work on that. At the end of the day, I believe we should have a partnership where no one person does a disproportionate share. We are both hardworking adults, we should split things as equally as possible though it’s not ever likely to be a 50/50 thing. Not only is it positive for our relationship, it also sets a good example for our children. I also take time out to teach him things about cooking, a thing I often need more help with since I’m not always done working in time for that. While the article might make it sound like a good guy/bad guy sort of relationship, it’s definitely more dynamic that that.
