yes i dont mind doing the cooking getting kids ready for school,taking out trash but if i’m to sick or to tierd i will look at my wife or children to help out also and if they respect me they will help out and i reward them and thank them for thier time it should be a give and take thing everyone should help out in there own way.

Apparently, no one caught the humor in the article! I guess it can't be so subtle! LOL. @L. Gettis - I know I CAN get it done and I WILL get it done, but I was trying to make a larger point about whether or not it's common to expect one person to handle certain responsibilities. I know it only takes a few minutes. Not the point. The point is that he usually handles these things and having to do it myself requires me to change my schedule around a bit. That's all. Not the end of the world. Tara Pringle Jeffersons last blog post..Share your breastfeeding horror story

Awe come on! It takes less than 30 minutes to have your oil changed. I do it? Its no big deal. You better hurry, you don’t want your car engine to lock up on you?

A chore is a chore is a chore. If the garbage needs to be taken out, do it, if the dishes need washed, wash them. If the oil needs changed in my cars I go to Vavoline. My kids just took one of my cars to the “do it yourself car wash”. My hubby will change a flat on my car, he has only changed the oil in my car once. I buy the “entertainment coupon book” and we have coupons for free oil changes, resturant coupons, comedy club and tire rotaion. FYI, I buy the book for all the free stuff mid year and it’s half price. On a real note we do have to let a man be a man and a woman be a woman but in todays times there are not gender “chore” roles. I am going to go “country white” and say , get her done”.

I rollin with MissJay……In our home we do what is needed. Whoever, gets to it first gets it done. Most of the time I clean and do the laundry and my wife would take the car for maintence(but she worked for the car dealer. She cook mostly but I sometimes get my hand in mix. I can cook mac and cheese.My wife cuts the boys hair including me. My point shared responsibility. Like MissJay expressed you may be in a situation where you have to do it.

I definitely know how to do almost everything in and around the house. I think it might be because of the way I was brought up. My dad would go out and brush the snow off my car and start it for me when I was in high school. He always put gas in my car and he took the trash out and...well, I was spoiled. And he would always do those things for my mom as well. So when I got married, I brought those assumptions to my marriage as well. @CLM - That's what I'm talking about! Let a man be a man! LOL.

Call me “old school”, but your hubby should be taking care of that, without you having to worry about it. I don’t know your schedules, so that might be a LOT more difficult than it sounds.

Car stuff = the guy. Period.

Again, I think that is something he should lead on. “Sweetheart, it’s time for an oil change, so I’ll be taking the car in on…” That kind of thing.

Like I said, that works for me; I don’t know your schedules or time pressures.

I am proactive while my better half is a procrastinator. My wife is a student so I do most of the cooking, cleaning, car maintenance, yard work, laundry and everything else with the exception of combing my girls hair and buying their clothes. I don’t wait on my wife to do things around the house because I am very impatient. She knows how I am so I thinks she gets some personal enjoyment of coming home and being able to relax.
