BJ, and JMan, remember boundaries. (Isn't that why you started the Robx and Coach thread in the first place, BJ?) The Spouses need boundaries and limits. Do you think it's true they don't do their part? If so, they need to appreciate you more. IF they are doing a lot of work around the house that you don't recognize, however, then appreciate them.

If you are holding up more of the dirty work - what can you start refusing to do so that your W will HAVE to pick up the slack? I wouldn't even say a word. Just see if she has the maturity to do it. Of course with babies you can't let stuff go, but...It's a way to force her hand into doing more work around the house.
