to think this is not a favour?

[winkywinkola]

I've been a SAHM for ten years. 4 dcs. Three are at school and ds3 at home with me.

I've started doing a bit of freelancing in my old job. It's okay.

But I want to go back to college. I've found a course on Saturdays. It means dh had the dcs from 9-5pm on that day for an academic year.

He's acting like he's doing me a huge favour.

I call it parenting and cooperation. Aibu?

My studies WILL help the family.

I don't mind dh going out to his social / hobbies at all.

"yes your studies may ultimately end up benefitting the family financially, but you're getting a lot out of it too.

Turn that around to apply it to his job, "yes, you're bringing in a wage, but you like your job, so it doesn't really count as a chore as you're getting a lot out of it too."
