Question
My wife and I have been going through tough times lately and our patience with one another seems to be very short, particularly when relating the chores or the state of our house. We decided to try your "10 Weeks to a Better Relationship" and week 5 has me a little confused.In our marriage, we both feel that my wife should stay home and raise our children while I earn a living. This is important to both of us. However, lately, our mismanagement of money is pointing to her going back to work. Our youngest is not even 2 yet so my wife going back to work is a last resort. But I'm straying from my point.
In week 5, the article about chores doesn't take into account that the wife might be home all day while the husband earns a living. From my perspective, the household chores should fall more on her. Of course I think I still do a lot around the house, but what is a "fair" division of chores if she's home most of the day while I'm away working?
