No probs the comment was supposed to be referring to what WomanActually posted. It was a bit vague though I guess was busy being a cool wife helping with homework, putting kids to bed and cooking dinner on my own because DH is unexpectedly had to go away for work.
I didn't realise that was to me either, I'm sorry for not replying, I wasn't ignoring you hope I didn't come across that way.
I haven't gone back to read the OP again but OP wasn't having a pop at people who are happy to have their partners go away for weekends away etc, it's when they make comments in a similar vein to the end of my last post.
I can cope when dh works away, I also don't care if he went away on lads weekend. I am perfectly happy on my own if dh has to go away. There's nothing wrong with that. It's when people imply those who are not happy doing it are incompetent.
Say there's a thread where a woman was saying she's doesn't want to be left alone with the dc all weekend while her Dh goes on lads weekend, that she does everything during the week as he's at work and finds that hard enough.
I wouldn't go on and make comments like
"if you can't cope with your own children for two days you need to get a grip"
"you only have two dc? That's easy."
"He's been working hard all week, you've been at home, he deserves a break"
"Are you always so controlling?"
That's what OP is referring to.
It's one thing being ok with doing the majority if stuff, but it's a bit twatty when people make the OP feel like shit when she's having a different experience to them.
