My dd is 5yrs old, and we both work full time, dh works 3 hrs more than me per week, shift work. I would like him to leave dd to school 2 mornings a week if he is on rest days, leave or lates (2.30pm-9.30pm) so I can get into work at 7am and beat the morning traffic rush, hence then getting away early and beating the evening rush, home in nice time to get dd and do dinner, otherwise I end up working 10am - 6pm. Up until now I have been working a really long day once or twice a week so he can do one morning and lie in bed all other mornings when not at work. He maintains he finds it hard to get up in the mornings as he does not sleep well (prob because he does not get up half the morning). He is a night owl and does help around the house, does dishes if I cook, loads dishwasher, laundry, his own ironing. This is causing a lot of arguments, though he is offering to do more cooking and bedtimes. I used to work less and basically did everything and as my hours increased I continued to do that until it dawned on me it was not very fair! At this rate I am wondering if I can get someone to come to the house and do the school drop one day per week, unfortunately the breakfast club is too late a start to beat the traffic.
