With me being Mr. mom she can do what ever she wants knowing that I'm home taking care of the kids. She can do for dinner or drinks anytime she wants after work. My day just starts after work. Cooking, homework and taking kids to activities. Maybe being apart she would realize that she cant take care of kids and how much I actually do. Don't want to be together for the kids, but she also thinks I don't do anything.
Why don't you inform her that YOU are going out for dinner and drinks with a friend. You don't have to give location, names, anything in detail, just let her know you are doing something this evening and you need her to watch the kids. Let her experience taking care of the kids. Give her the chance to 'miss' your help around the house.
This not only changes the dynamic in your R, but it gives you the chance to go out and have a good time. If she can, why can't you?
