As background, I work, and my wife does not. She goes to school part time, but is currently between semesters. Married 10 years. I recently started a new position where I work from home 4 days a week. Since I'm home, I've gotten a new perspective on what happens here when I'm working.
We have 3 kids, all under 6. The kids pretty much occupy themselves all day. Video games, TV, puzzles, books, whatever. Mom doesn't do a whole lot of interacting. They often come to me in the home office for stuff. It seems like my wife doesn't do much. I make breakfast in the morning 90% of the time. I make lunch 75% of the time. We do dinner together.
When I go downstairs during the workday, she is on her computer or watching soaps. She does the laundry. She tidies up when it gets bad (not confused with CLEANING) or when I say something. The house has been mopped twice in the last year - once by me. I agreed to buy this house new so she could have exactly what she wanted in it, and it's going to hell.
