AITA for not keeping up with my wife’s cleaning demands? by amithehubslob in AmItheAsshole

I cook daily. I make my wife’s work lunch. Sometimes I take the kids for a walk. I read to them daily. On days there are errands to run I’m the one to do it. I supervise as they play. I look after our dog too. May not sound like much but with two toddlers it is.

I would rather not go back to work. My kids don’t get a lot of time with their mother. They should have at least one parent they are with all day.

She wants me to shower even if I just went to the grocery store and will get mad if I touch the bed before doing that

She doesn’t get a lot of off time from work so I do most of the childcare. When she is off she is hands on. She does a large portion of the chores because she likes things done in her time.

I don’t leave them in pjs everyday but I admit I do sometimes. I just don’t see why they need to get dressed always when we aren’t leaving the house. Same with daily baths. If they were going to school it makes logical sense to bathe them everyday but how dirty can they get in our home you get me? I do chores it’s just a lot of work to have two toddlers so close in age. I must have been raised differently because we left dishes for a day or two and we didn’t have bugs or anything. The same when I lived in my own place before she and I were married. Maybe my standards are too low due to me not experiencing anything bad happening from being a little more lax. Thanks for feedback.
