I'd like to gauge what people think is reasonable in the following scenario:
Family of 4 with a 6yo and 2yo. One parent works 4 days a week; the other doesn't work at all (I'm talking about paid employment here, not domestic labour). The non-working parent is at home with the 2yo for 3 days of the week. The other 2 days, the 2yo is at nursery. The non-working parent does all the cooking, making of breakfasts, getting eldest to school on time etc. The working parent does all of the laundry, folding, putting away as well as organising the food shopping, sorting out school things, uniform, washing up after dinner, tidying the kitchen etc.
The house is a mess and the bathrooms not cleaned in weeks (apart from a quick wipe down). What would you suggest is a fair and reasonable way to divide the remaining chores (eg. Hoovering, cleaning the bathrooms, tidying toys away, meal planning etc). Should these be split equally between both adults or should the non-working parent take most of these on, given 2 full child-free days.
