My husband is a great guy in most respects. Most of his flaws are just petty annoyances as I'm sure mine are to him. HOWEVER, I have never met a more lazy person in my life! He lays around, watches TV, reads "Sports Illustrated", talks on the phone, etc. But never, and I mean NEVER helps me around the house or with the kids. I have to beg him to mow the yard or take out the trash and usually I have to end up doing it because he doesn't. I've talked to him about this, yelled at him about this, cried about it...I'm wore out and he's not hearing me. We have 4 kids and a big house to maintain. I've threatened to call a maid service to help me out from time to time, but he says he doesn't want to spend the money. I just can't do it alone anymore. How can I get through to him that a marriage is supposed to be a team? (Please don't tell me to stop doing the cleaning, etc. because I would go crazy living in a dump!)
