Valium for the Soul

Come with me on a journey through uncharted territory...

Quotes:
How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being. - Oscar Wilde
Quotes:
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. - Albert Einstein
Quotes:
Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge. - Mark Twain
Quotes:
I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him. - Mark Twain
Quotes:
Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. - Albert Einstein

I hate that this is not surprising.....
A woman with a partner and children does on average 4hrs per week more housework than a sole mother with children.

    I hate to agree but it is true. I think 4 hrs still underestimated.

    You just about got it right, although you may be a little low with the 4 hrs.

    However, it depends upon the couple, how long they have been married, and if the kids are still at home.

    It helps too, if the partner realizes that everyone must chip in and do what needs to be done. Discussing and establishing a division of labor is a way to cope.

    Just some random thoughts.

    Serve well, care about those you serve and share the love in your heart.

    What Jack said... think they need to sit down and make out a schedule.
