does anyone else out there have this issue, where the dad of two doesn't do anything for the kids, expects me to do everything. says "it a woman's job" don't cook, don't clean, have to beg for him to change his own kids nappy's.. (they are 1 and 2 and a half) or to do anything! won't just get off his back side and help?
am now ready to walk it's that bad it's spoiling everything day to day i can't cope! surly this isn't right?

Of course it isn’t. He’s being an arse. I’m guessing he has always been like this.

It's a woman's job? What a fucking arsehole!
No, it's a PARENT's job! Looking after your children is both parents responsibility!

Uggghhh I hate men like that!

This is very selfish of your husband, and you deserve to have help with your children and your home. It doesn't show any respect for you. I would have a very frank discussion about it, and if he isn't willing to change then you can decide if you are willing to live like this. Sorry, OP, this must be really difficult Flowers

Sorry, I've just re-read and realised you didn't say whether he's your husband or not, but regardless, he is still the kids' dad, and he should want to take care of them. Good luck, OP.

Make your single parenthood official and get rid of the lazy fucker

No because I wouldn’t have had four children with a man like that, maybe had one they got the he’ll out of there.

Woman’s work??!!! It’s 2019 FFS. I physically couldn’t do it on my own.

He also changes both our DC nappies helps out with putting them to bed etc I tend to do more of the cleaning though but this doesn't bother me

It's not helping out for fucks sake, it's PARENTING.

Manclife1 · 09/06/2019 19:08

I assuming he acted like this after the first. So why did you have a second? He sounds like a dick!

GreenTulips · 09/06/2019 19:09

Assume he likes food and clean clothes and a tidy house?

See how he manages alone and takes the kids EOW while you have a much deserved rest

Get rid

On MN there are seemingly many many women who have had not just one but several children with lazy selfish men so you’re far from alone OP.
It’s up to you really what you want to do about it.
