Cleaning dishes

Yes for sure. If he is home to eat with us, since I cook he cleans up the mess. But if he is not home then i do it. I do not see anything wrong with a man being domesticated and helping out. After all isn't marriage about compromise?

i can never count on my husband to do this for me during the times we were still together...he is such a lazy creature. when my children had gotten to be old enough to do the chores at home, this is the time that i can rest from this kind of housechore. usually, they volunteer for clearing the table after we have dined. this all goes through with the cleaning of the kitchen and washing of all those dirty dishes. i am so blessed with very loving and helpful kids, bamakelly.

Hi bamakelly, Yes, my husband helps me with the dishes all the time. Take care...

Yes I have done that on occasion but learned very quickly that my husband won't do the dishes until I have a fit telling him I'm overwhelmed with the housework. So usually it's just easier to do the dishes immediately. I can ask him to do something else and I feel better that the kitchen is manageable.

I would never do that because there is no way my guy will do any type of housework. He thinks since he goes to a job he shouldn't have to do anything at home.

yes, I have dreamed that dream, and it was pointless. But I do think that I am fortunate because my husband prefers to vacume and wash laundry. It is not such a bad trade.

Actually I have given this chore to my children. Someone washes, someone else dries, and another will sweep the kitchen and they rotate tasks each week. But I do all the pots and cooking stuff before hand, so they only really have the plates and cups and stuff. So once supper is done I clear the table and they do the rest. Considering I do all the cooking for every meal, laundry, all other dishes, and chores around the house and work and be everyone's taxi and they actually get money at the end of the month for it too, it isn't much to ask for.
