While he did work from home during the COVID-19 pandemic, though, he is now back at his office and is working out of the house for 10 to 12 hours every day.
“So I find it hard to do laundry or take the kids to school from my desk. I also do not have the privilege of getting the kids on the bus at 8:00 a.m. and being home to get them off the bus at 3:00 p.m.,” he explained.
Regardless of that fact, his wife wants him home to take care of their children in both the mornings and the afternoons.
She has also continued refusing to get help for her depression in spite of him constantly trying to talk to her about it.
In fact, his wife apparently just changes the subject before talking about how much harder her job is than his.
She also claims that “men don’t do enough for her around the house,” even though he swears that he has been doing everything lately.
For instance, since his wife refuses to leave the house now, he goes to Walmart twice a week to do all of the grocery shopping.
He also has to drive their kids to all of the programs she signed them up for and cooks dinner four nights per week.
So, quite frankly, he feels taken advantage of.
“By someone who doesn’t understand that doing laundry twice a week is not a $30,000 a year job,” he added.
“Yes, she puts the kids on the bus. But now that she reduced her hours to zero, I get told she has a job and takes care of the house and kids on her own.”
