My wife and I both have jobs and she also has a second job as a waitress. She also keeps house, does the cooking, takes our children to school and picks them up, and makes sure they get their homework done and eats dinner and showers and all that. She does all of this essentially without help from me because I work long hours and I dont have time to do anything else. I want her to make the bed when she gets up in the morning but she doesnt because she says she needs to get our kids up and off to school. I know this is not an ideal situation but I make good money and because of our financial situation, I dont see my job changing in the future.<br><br>A few nights ago, she and I had an argument about the bed not being made. I dont want to go into details about what was said but lets just say I was not very nice. The result was that the bed was made yesterday morning. But then last night we had another argument about it. Maybe I am a dick or maybe she is being lazy. I dont know. <br><br>What do you think?<br><br>​<br><br>Edit 2: Wow! Thanks for the comments. I would like to make a few things clear. First, I do make a lot of money but the cost of living in my area is extremely high. We are barely scraping by and a second income is a must for us. My hours are long and I dont really have time to do many of the things my wife does. I do the grocery shopping and mow the lawn and take out the trash. I also clean the litter boxes and the other things that my wife has assigned to me. When it comes to the kids, I am what my wife calls a "fun dad". We have a lot of fun but she is the one who does most of the hard work with the kids. As far as the bed goes, I only want it made because I know that if it isnt, it wont be for a while. I also will add that in my area, we have a lot of services that you can buy, and we use a few of them. For example, the house is cleaned once a week and the lawn is fertilized in the spring and fall. We also have a pool and it is maintained by a service.<br><br>​<br><br>Edit: I want to say thanks to everyone for the comments. I am not a complete asshole because I have done my part and Governments and Corporations and all that. I am going to do a better job communicating with my wife and I am going to help out more. I understand that I am not too far from being unemployed and wont be able to provide for my family. My wife does a lot of work and the least I can do is try to ease her burden.
