How do you balance work and family life?

SUPerSaver721 · 27/09/2025 17:22

Are all your kids to the same man?

SUPerSaver721 · 27/09/2025 17:22

Who's minding the kids?

TurnTheGodforsakenVolumedown · 27/09/2025 17:23

Holluschickie · 27/09/2025 17:23

Not a question but I get that comment all the time.

Netcurtainnelly · 27/09/2025 17:24

Are you pregnant.

Daleksatemyshed · 27/09/2025 17:25

Why did you have DC if you want a career?

CryptoFascist · 27/09/2025 17:25

Who's looking after your kids while you're at work?

BreakingBroken · 27/09/2025 17:26

Is that your natural hair color.

TheNightingalesStarling · 27/09/2025 17:27

Not lost the baby weight yet?
Does your wife mind you working?
Should you be drinking in your condition

I ask my husband what's for dinner all the time

This was my first thought too!

Also, doesn’t your partner mind you going out with friends after work?

Does he tell you how annoying it is?

Deerfolk · 27/09/2025 17:29

-middle of work day and it has gone past 3pm, cue random colleague in panicked tone-

Who’s picking up your kids from school?!

nottinghamsandwich · 27/09/2025 17:30

Not so much a question, but when it starts raining men never say ‘Oh no I’ve left the washing out!’

Pollqueen · 27/09/2025 17:30

You're glowing, are you pregnant/met a new man?

HedwigEliza · 27/09/2025 17:31

Are you okay? How are you feeling? What’s wrong? Do you have a problem? Anything I can do to help?

Snorlaxo · 27/09/2025 17:31

Dad is babysitting so you can go out?

Wow- dad got up with the kids so you can stay in bed an extra hour?

Isn’t your ex great having the kids overnight? (He had them one overnight every 3 weeks)

MorphandMindy · 27/09/2025 17:31

I travel alone and sometimes might have dinner or drinks with people I meet. I always make it very clear that I am happily married and I get “and what does your husband think of you going out and talking to strangers on your own?”

(DH hates travelling like I do so he’s quite happy tbh.)

Tarkan · 27/09/2025 17:31

When wearing a band t-shirt: “Can you even name 3 songs?”

Holluschickie · 27/09/2025 17:32

Doesnt your husband mind you going away/ out without him?

SunnyCoco · 27/09/2025 17:32

Who's looking after the kids for you while you're out?

My DH does! He’s obsessed with hanging out washing. You’re demonstrating just the sort of gender stereotyping the op is talking about.

CailinDeas78 · 27/09/2025 17:34

Are you going to go back to work full time after you have baby?
