I get wild with my husband,when he throws around things and then expect me to put it in place. I am hopping mad when I am in kitchen,packing lunch and preparing breakfast,when my husband calls me from the sitting room to share a piece of interesting news on the T.V or newspaper.He will be sitting in the room enjoying his cup of coffee,or watching news. I feel angry with my kids when they throw around things and expect me to pick up.When I scold them they become all defensive and in the end I feel foolish to have fought with them. Finally when my husband help me in the kitchen and then goes around telling that I do not do any work in the kitchen.I really feel like blowing my top.Do you feel the same way?

Hi. Well maybe that's the heavy part of being a mother. In the family almost everything is being put on the shoulder of the poor mother. Ma, where's my shirt? mom, where are my socks? mommy, can I have my cup of coffee? A little bit frustrating but very rewarding. After all, mothers are the most loved persons in this whole wide world. Cheers to all mothers.

Oh, yes if we only had cooperation with our children and spouse in picking up their own things. I just love it when my husband asks me where something of his is. I have a hard enough time trying to keep track of my own stuff! Some times I think they throw things around because they know "mom" will pick up after them.

It is horrible when you feel as though people take you for granted at home, and I will admit that this is something that I am struggling with at the moment as well. My brother is in college and never helps around the house because he says that he has too much work to do and it makes him tired. This may be true, but when I was at college I helped out a lot more than he does now, and because of this I think that it is very unfair that he doesn't bother to help me, especially because I am working full time from home as well which means that I am tired too.

Yup! It's like you were just describing my chaotic life, except for the husband throwing things. My husband doesn't do that. But he expects everything from me. The bath towel and his changing clothes should be there, cleaning of the house, doing the laundry, washing the dishes, fixing all the mess. Sometimes, I ask how much more I could take. But, there's nobody else to depend on but myself.

Thanks for sharing,I thought I was the only one getting tired of arranging things for my husband at his beck and call.To know there are other people also make the irritation bearable.

Oh I can understand and relate to what you are saying. I do find it irritating when my husband doesn't pick up after himself. Often times after work he leaves his clothes on the bathroom floor after work and he is often times leaving tissues on the counter. It drives me crazy at times. He doesn't help with the house work. I work part time outside the home, online, and I take care of our daughter. He often says that I have the schedule to take care of everything. I will soon be working full time. At times he his comments annoy me because I know when I work full time I will still be doing everything as well.

I have been married for almost two years.I am not yet at that point because we are still living with my parents temporarily. When my husband is around it is so difficult to do household chores he always wants to go outside or just simply watch movies at home. He likes to do wash dishes but I always end up washing them all over again hihihihi.
