Why Do Not you tell yo husbad that Men do not knew what we need unless we tell them! Open you mouth. Tell him what you did all day then say what did you]]] do!ry and see if he would help with dinner or the cleaning. I am very lucky my husband does the shopping the cooking and the dishes

Some men still think its the womans job to do all the house work and think the job at home is not hard and theres plenty of time to just lay back. Also if we say something they take it as complaning. I would like to see my husband listen to Dora and trying two handle two fussy kids.

You should let him try get out of the house for a day trip with friend (s)or alone. I would just say I appreciate that you work all week but I work all week with the house & the kids too. Could you watch them for a few hours ... then next time maybe for the day.Give him a list of things that needs done while you are out. Ya know they things you do every day. He might get real and see all that you do!!
Good luck

You're not the only one whos unappreciated sweetie,no one appreciates what I do either so I quit cleaning and I dont clean until if or when I feel like it. When they complain,I smile to myself!

Even if you did go to work for 8 hours a day you know that once you picked the kids up from daycare and got home you would have the "evening shift" of cleaning and cooking and getting the kids ready for bed...you would still have to do all the stuff you do during the day at night!

Fake the flu and don't do anything for a whole week! They'll soon notice how hard you work in the home!!!

My husband is dead. At least you have someone to do do do for.

Chances are, you have a neighbor on your block who gets physically beaten if she doesn't do do do enough. At least you are safe.

Chances are, you have another neighbor down the street whose husband is sleeping around. At least someone is coming home to you tonight.

There are -- literally -- millions of women in this world who do not have a house to clean, or even a place to lay their head at night other than a sidewalk, shak or shelter. Thousands of them live in America. At least you have a house to clean.

Count your blessings.

Do for others because you feel good about not for the response you may get. Adopt this philosophy and you will sail through the days and the crosses you must bear much mor easily.

Thank God. He's thankful for YOU and all you do!

I think this email took a different turn. Lilli I am so sorry to hear about your husband. My heart goes out to you and yours. And all our neighbors. But some ladies do not get the appriciation they deserve and I think these ladies were just trying to find someone else who can relate. God knows I do. And I do admit I am very blessed an very thankful. But it would be nice if all the hard work I do such as cleaning my house and raising children and everything else that comes with the title "stay at home mom" would be noticed. To often do woman lose themselves and die inside because they feel so alone. This causes some deep depression. Which is a huge problem. So please dont make these ladies feel like how they are feeling should be bottled up regardless that is could be worse!! Thanks!! I hope you get what I am saying!!

I wonder if any one thank the husbands for going to work and helping with the bills and odd jobs he does. I think both parties feel unappreciated.Communication is the key I tell my husbad that I need him to say wow the house looks so cleamn or thanks for making dinner What ever I do I want to be appeciated for it. He said he would be saying thak you every min. of the day. So we have a deal once in a while I say thank you for all your hard work & then a few days later he thanks me.
It works for us.If he is reallytired I make and extra effort to make hime feel that all his hard work is worth it and he does the same for me.
I think we get caught up in our daily life and forget the common kindness.
Good luck too all

i feel the same way trecia and i do thank my husband every thursday when he hands me the paycheck. and besides they do have their bosses telling them good job we have a 4 year old screaming MOMMY YOU FORGOT MY SNACK , A HUSBAND ,HONEY DID YOU WASH WORK CLOTHES
AND A 15 MONTH OLD JUST SCREAMING FOR NO REASON THEY ARE JUST BORED
my husband does work hard but he also has the good jobs from bosses.

I have found that bosses these days do not say thanl youany more.I still think we all should that the husbands abd in turn thank us. No offence but guys are mostly dumb when it comes to noticing or thanking. We must tell them what we need or we will not get it. I bet the do not know hwo you feel.Like whrn theydo something to make youmad they do not know why you are angry( most of the time). WE have to tell the
Just my thoughts

Ok Being a SHM is hard work but lets be honest here since there are no men around:-) We can decide when to do what, we can take a short nap in the afternoon with the baby or if you have toddlers with them, or if you have one kid in school and one at home you can cuddle up while they watch an educational video and you take a nap next to them. Point is we can do that our working spouses can not. We can decide what time to cook din and what to cook, we can decide to take the kids to the park and have fun, they can not do any of that. And yes, we should hear some appreciation for all we do, just like we should give some appreciation for all they do. My husband and I both acknowledge each others contributions. Like I said I would not tell this to any man, but come on girls lets admit it we do have the better end of thie bargain here.
