To be fed up of doing all the parenting

DH has been WFH since March. DS and I have tried to be quiet from 7.30 to 4 every day while he works . Small terraced house so sound travels easily from room to room. I have been thinking about things today and realised we haven't even been in his car since March! He has not taken us anywhere. He's just worked 10 hours today and announced he is visiting his mum at the care home tomorrow. (Sees her once a week, every week). So again I'm left to entertain DS, which is very limited with no car.( He has some SEN.). AIBU to be feeling angry about this but also maybe I should just get on with it because he is the wage earner ? YABU - get on with it.
YANBU - It's ok to feel angry about this

I'm a SAHP and DH is WFH and has been since March.

First, we don't worry about noise. He's not the only working parent at home with children. His colleagues and clients get it and understand.

Second, he has taken the opportunity to be more hands on with the kids. He helps me before breakfast, at lunch and he does bath and bed every night. He even took the kids to his parents for 2 nights so I could have a break.

You need to speak to him and work out a way for him to give you a break
