A mother was furious after her husband told her to do all the housework even on her day off because he works more than her.

Taking to Mumsnet, the wife explained that she and her husband have a 3-year-old daughter and it can be very exhausting to work and do all the household chores while taking care of a child.

But her husband doesn’t seem to appreciate her efforts and even asked her to do more because she works for four days while he works five.

“Tonight he tells me that he’s thought about the housework/shopping/washing etc and he states that seeing as he works more than me (I work four days and he works five), that on the fifth day of him working I should do all the housework,” she wrote.

“So on the two days off nothing will need doing. We have a three-year-old daughter who I like to take to soft play lunch etc on my day off so its not like it’s a day off to myself.”

She also explained that she’s the one doing most of the housework, keeping their home clean and organized, and making sure all their bills are paid.

Now she’s wondering if she’s just overreacting to her husband’s suggestions.

One person commented: “Stand your ground but really, if you’re married to someone who doesn’t deeply care about you, it’s a tough life.”

Another wrote: “Does he think magic fairies will wash the dishes after his meals, and do anything else that needs doing on his days off.”

A third added: “Don’t clean for a week, take care of the child, but don’t pickup after him. He will realize what she actually does around the house.”
