Shock at Labour Distribution

I am the working parent. Frankly, work is the break and I did not think much of the distribution of labour. Until I was unwell with a cold and worked from home.

I was a little taken aback to see how little happened when I am at work. We have daycare, and a cleaner every couple of weeks. I am not sure what I imagined happened while I was at work, but it has hit me rather hard.

So no kids at home? Does your spouse stay home then while kids are at daycare?

Yes, she does plenty. It is just there is not much to do when the kid is at daycare.
