Do your iron your DH’s shirts and make his lunch? He was telling me earlier that his colleagues wife makes her DH’s lunch etc. I feel bad but I’m busy enough with the kids clothes, work etc (only work 3 days but still)..MIL does EVERYTHING for DIL and get the impression she expects me to do the same for DH. He is getting lazier and lazier, I’ve asked him to mow the lawn for 3 weeks and he never gets round to it, I will do it this weekend instead but he just doesn’t help at all!!!!! I make tea and he never bloody puts the pots in the dishwasher, he moans when he goes to put a shirt on and it is dirty? Should I be washing them?

all he has to do is get up, get dressed and leave. I have to get up, do the kids breakfasts, get them dressed, take them to nursery/breakfasts clubs before I even start work. Surely he can wash a shirt 😩😩😩

Of course he can. The rule is that you both have equal leisure time. Gone are the days when women do all of the domestic work. If a SAHP/lower earner makes that agreement with their OH, then that's up to them. I think that modern woman are getting fucked over tbh. I did it all and many of our peer group did, but wasn't expected to work and we'd do reciprocal babysitting.
