Question for everyone, and it’s about your parents.
Does your dad help your mom with household chores? Does he at least take care of himself,like washing his own clothes or does your mom have to do everything for him? In my house, my mom literally has to take care of three grown ass children: my father and my two grown ass brothers. From washing their underwear,to ironing their clothes to serving them food no matter how tired she is, to washing their plates after they eat ,she does it all.She expects me to do the same too simply because I’m a woman.My family is very conservative,we’re Muslim, so that’s kind of a given but I still find it unfortunate.
What about y’all? How is it in your homes? I’m curious.
This question is for the married folks too do y'all do all that for your husbands too? Ot does your husband help in house chores or atleast take care of himself?
I think I have a good family we split the chores mostly but my mom does most of the chores. My dad does the cooking tho but i guess that’s about it he also does all the repairing and shit reply
my dad works 15 to sometimes 20 hours a day, and sometimes he come back home and just fall asleep without eating anything from how tired he is. He doesnt help around the house and rarely cooks food, we are 2 girls, him and mom, and he says that the three of us can divide the chores so we dont get into fights, for underwears we just put them in the ...... reply
For me it's balanced. My mother does mejority of household chores like cooking, cleaning. My dad works but still does laundry, cleaning when he's home. reply
The chores usually fell on my mom and my dad rarely bothered, he'd even complain when she reminded him to do them or told him to pick up after himself. My parents would fight a lot because of that, and my mom definitely deserved better in that regard. I swore to myself I'd never get myself in a relationship like that, and luckily, my partner is abs...... reply
I guess to some extent(? He does most of the cooking and dishes, any maintenance of the house and groceries but rarely does laundry or deep cleans. He takes care of his things in general ig. Either way my mom doesnt slave herself away for my dad, never have, never will.
He was spoiled by my grandparents bc he was the only boy among a lot of sister...... reply
My parents are Christian but from a Muslim majority country and it’s exactly the same for me. Culture over religion really. Thing is he can’t even use a washing machine like how did men like this survive 30 years ago. reply
It depends, my mom and dad currently lives in Canada, they both does it tho my mom does the most but they do everything together, at least this way my mom and dad is happy, they have fights sometimes but they work it out, most of their fights are about money, they're being financially pressured a lot these years because of my grandparents' deterior...... reply
My family is conservative and traditional, me and my mom do all the chores but now that my brother is grown (he’s 16) my parents make him do minor chores (taking out the trash, other chores dubbed “for men”) but at the end of the day it falls to me. My dad is the sole breadwinner and my mom acts as his secretary at our business, when I was yo...... 2 reply
He only washes dishes if he cooks. (Which is once every other week, to him it's a hobby but to my mom it's a requirement) me and my sister have been picking up the slack as well, I help with serving+setting up, washing the dishes and with the dishes I'm comfortable with I prep.
I was stubborn about learning how to cook(my mom referred to it as a ...... 1 reply
Hello!
When my dad was alive, he was working longer hours than my mum and travelling around the region a lot. My mum was working a shitty job though and was tired as well when she came back. Sadly my dad came back way later in the day so it was mostly my mum cooking and caring when we came back from school.
However, when he could, my dad would he...... 1 reply
