My DH works long hours, he is away from home all week. We have DS whom is 7. When he comes home on a weekend he always falls asleep early and is a real grump. I have to understand his work pressures and appreciate he is working to provide for all of us. However, in return I run the home, the house is always spotless when he comes home and welcoming as he would be worse if things just weren't so. I look after all the finances, do the cooking, cleaning, gardening, Washing, ironing, everything related to the home. I don't think he has ever read with DS and if on the rare occasion I have asked for help with his homework 5 minutes in he will start been frustrated with DS and then tell me he doesn't want to do it. I leave him in bed when he is home and get up early with DS ...even take him a coffee up. I have seen this as my role in the relationship to make things work together, although I do feel quite neglected but just get on with it. However this morning DH said to me "you don't support me, you think because you iron a shirt for me it's support!" I feel very hurt by this and quite a mug ...AIBU?
