AIBU?
To insist DH puts 3 DC's to bed?

I have a huge amount to do..housework, pack for holiday, ironing, list items on eBay (needs to be done now before I start packing to move house in Sept'). It will never get done unless DH completely takes over DC's when he comes in from work at 6pm. If I have a roast chicken, etc ready, would it be unreasonable to ask?

DH gets home from work between 4:30 and 5 and he usually totally takes over child care 'til bedtime.
YANBU. It can get like that, when you have a move or holiday coming up, where you feel like you are the one doing all the organising. He should do it without question.

You have had a busy day at work too looking after your dc's!!! Plus you're not sitting on your arse while he puts them to bed (and why shouldn't you occasionally do this either?!
Don't think you are being unreasonalble at all and sure he won't either! Dh is bathing ds at the mo while I chill for a bit - I'll then go give him his milk and put him to bed. And I've been off today with ds (work 3 days a week). Sometimes he does it all sometimes I do and sometimes we split it - depends on who is tired and what else there is to do.
have a lovely holiday!
