Jus had a quarrel with my hubby.. I'm a SAHM . I have Two kids. Every day after my hubby's work , I desire that he spend a bit of time to bond with our kids. Jus 30 mins is good cos I understand that he is tired after work so I try to be reasonable . Jus now we started to have some disagreement over something n he begins to say things like give him a break after work , he is tired n can't help out so much with the kids.. etc.. he Meant to say that I'm a SAHM , I should do everything , why involve him n ask him to help with this n that. Though I'm a SAHM but my role is not easy too n i feel tired too after one whole day of looking after kids, cooking , housework etc. I don't laze around , I work hard the whole day too. Then he told me if it is so hard for me to be a SAHM , then I should jus quit being a SAHM n go out to work . At least I can bring home income.. I feel so upset .. am I really v demanding ? Sob.

My husband too, that when i start to tell him why not you stay at home and i go work. My girl glue to me 24/7 and cry when im not around that when he know how hard for me.

You are not demanding at all. It's absolutely normal for how you feel. Its sad that some men fail to see nd understand that a baby and house is a mutual role.

You feel he is overboard, he feel you are demanding. Just different sides of story. Cool down and approach the topic subtly when both are in good mood.

Oh my, is it one off that your husband is too stress at work. SAHM are really great, don’t be hard on yourself. I’m sure you are doing well

Let him take long leave stay home and be a SAHD while u work. See how long he can tahan.

Tell him to stay home and you go out and work. I told my husband that.
