Am I being unreasonable here?? Iv been busy with the kids all day while partner been at work 6-2 so Iv had two kids home all day then picked the rest up from school been rushed off my feet since they got home then just made 8 kids dinners then made the baby a bottle and came sat down and said do you need me to get him his response “what now he’s asleep” so I said eh I’ll happily sit on my backside holding the baby whilst you do everything else I don’t mind he obviously didn’t respond but it’s annoyed me sooo much

I think having 8 kids might have been your first mistake.

Kids had friends over don’t know why it would matter even if I did have 8 it’s my body and my life it shouldn’t even matter if I did have 8 or not

So hes done an 8 hour day, whilst your 16 hour day obviously is of no comparison.

You are enabling his weaponized incompetence though by acceptance. If he is "allowed" unfettered to sit in his arse whilst you run around doing everything for everyone... i dont doubt he will continue to sit on his arse.

But you're so much better at childcare and looking after the house... you know what they need, you know what needs doing... blah...
