Expecting HIM to do school run?

[Brighton5555]

Just wanted to get a idea if I’m out of order .
My Dh runs his own business and works long hours normally getting home at 12.30am..

I am a stay at home mum to our child plus my elder child who has sen.

We have a agreement where Dh takes our son to school each morning and I do all pick ups.

He has said as he’s is working so hard at his shop it’s really not fair for him to get up at 8.15am Monday to Friday to do this .. hinting I should do it .

I don’t like school runs but do all pick ups. I also do all the housework / cooking / cleaning / appointments / admin/ planning/ paying bills / taking kids to clubs / activities .. you know the list is endless.

The only things my husband does is this school run and taking the bin out once a week. Nothing else .

some might think as I’m a stay at home mum I should do it but if I do ( I’m already up each morning and all the work of getting the kids ready for school is done , he literally just drives our child ) then he literally does one thing a week - the bin.

I could take my child but I don’t see why I should. I get he works long hours and in the summer holidays he’s been getting up at 10.30am every morning so to have to wake up at 8.15 he isn’t going to like but he doesn’t have to do it during the holidays / half terms and weekend …

Am I wrong ? am I being lazy ?

The jealousy filled responses … I sympathise with you that your so consumed by your own misery that it’s poured out into my post with all the digs, pulling up my previous posts , name calling me and so on… truly pathetic.

OP, nobody, and I mean nobody, is jealous of you.

Why on earth would anyone be jealous of your life? You claim you do everything, you're skint and you don't trust you husband. Wow, defo something to be jealous of hun

name calling me and so on… truly pathetic.
😂😂😂

But name calling your husband a cunt for hiring a female driver is ... not pathetic?

The jealousy filled responses

The delusion is strong... Best line of the threat right there 😂😂

I'm beginning to think the op might be winding us up now....???

Seriously? Jealous??

You’ve spent the entire thread saying how miserable you are and how hard done by you are.

Now you’re trying to say posters are jealous of your life!

😂😂 you are a character OP.

What do you think people are jealous of?

I’m jealous of her audacity tbh

What's it got her?

I’m jealous of her audacity tbh

Fair point!

She may contributes 60% of the income due to state benefits. With a disabled child the money is the same as an average earner if you are "single parent" with zero income. It's would explain why she's hasn't mentioned where her income comes from as it's illegal 🤣 , that in addition to possible child maintenance would add up to decent income.

Not saying this is the case just a possibility.

To answer your post... you do the school run or get a job while your kids are at school like most of have to. You are being lazy.

Does make me laugh when people who have school age children call themselves stay at home parents, you are lady of leisure own that title you are not providing childcare during the day well unless your home schooling or something.

I am absolutely so friging jealous, I've always said the problem with Mat leave is that baby that's comes with it 🤣 jokes obviously...

You’re miserable, feel unjustly hard done by, have a husband who you never see and no sustainable income. Nobody is jealous of you.

The DP's business was only set up a year ago (previous thread) so not surprising he's not making money yet despite working 1pm-11pm 6 days.

If the op is getting high care and high mobility DLA for her DS and carers allowance for herself she will be getting £226.6 per week (untaxed). Then there's the £145 every 4 weeks child benefit. Since it's implied her DP is a low earner they will also be getting UC which will have extra disability and carer premiums added onto it. That could easily be an extra £1k pcm.

Can't see the relationship continuing tbh.

No one is jealous. No one is full of admiration. Most people have tried to understand a situation which is confusing at best.

It’s tedious

I still don’t understand how you’re providing 60% of family income. SAHMs don’t get paid. Where is the money coming from? Obviously this affects how your husband is perceived. And you haven’t answered whether they’re his kids or not?

And you haven’t answered whether they’re his kids or not?

It says in the OP she is a SAHM to 'our child and my elder child' which would indicate only the youngest is his

If he's working late and ur already up anyway in the morning then yes I think this falls to you. Maybe he cld do it a couple of times a week at most. To be honest I wouldn't expect it at all though.

MLM

😂😂😂😂 Thanks everyone

We are not on benefits but you clearly are given how you know the rates to the £ .

Really ? 😂😂😂

I do have a income .
I am not miserable
I simply don’t feel I should do all the morning school runs 🙄😵‍💫

Digging through previous threads of me desperately searching for anything … something to put me blast … yeah that’s pathetic .

Skint ? Nope. I am the main provider and am able to stay home .

I do feel like I do everything ! I’m a walking Wonder Woman I swear!

Thanks . That’s what we have agreed to today

Do you genuinely think that there are dozens of women commenting because they’re crazed with jealousy or do you think it’s possible that you might be:

• In the wrong;
• A poor communicator; and
• In possession of a somewhat unfortunate personality?
