Personally, I feel that in a two-income situation, if there is no hired cleaning help, the husband should be as responsible for household chores as the wife. They are BOTH coming home exhausted after a workday.
I agree and so does my husband. We split our roles pretty evenly and it works out well. I do more of the cleaning (non specific time based stuff) and he does more of the time based things (like taking out the garbage) because he is much more responsible than I am. I would totally forget and have garbage piling up 🙂
Wolf, I normally agree with you but its not about the husband HELPING, its about the husband taking on his fair share of responsibility, which is based on work situations and whatnot.
