Default parent
Relationship Stress / by Lindseyymariee
Last post
 June 9th, 2025
...See more I am so fed up with being the default parent . My husband (30) and me (28) both work in law enforcement full time , different agencies. We have one child. I feel like I have no help with the house chores , the mental load or anything . I do all of the grocery shopping , all of the cooking , all of the scheduling , laundry ,dishes, feed all of the animals . I am exhausted. And yes I pay the electric bill and house bill. My husband went to a week long training 2 hours away (he loves trainings) came home around 6pm and went straight to bed . Slept till 7:30 am . Isn’t that nice. This morning , he walked right past our cooing childs room ,who had already woken up and he started with his morning . I waited 10 mins in disbelief. I knew he heard our son .. am I the ***hole for coming unraveled this morning? My point is . No one has to tell me to do the dishes when the sink is full, or that the baby needs more diapers . Or take the trash out when it is clearly full. I don’t need to be told hey our child needs a bath or needs to be fed . But if I’m not the one who does it, it won’t get done.
