and btw .. why shouldn't he do it ... why does doing it make him a doormat .. more like an involved father if you ask me .. not like he gets much chance to do this normally

oh i see! ok

Really pleased this isn't just in our house.We do the one bath and one tidy up dpwnstairs thing too.I always pull the "Oh,but it's so good for bonding" thing.
The littlies are 6.5 and 2.5 so that one's wearing a bit thin now.
Still,DH is away for a week now so that's me not doing bath time for at least a week when he gats back

We always either do it together or dh does it on his own. I think that's just right really considering I already spend all day with them, being a SAHM.

I do feel it's very important that the limited time dh has at home with them he should do his part of tasks like that.
