Homeschooling a kindergartener.

Postby janineb781 » Wed Nov 04, 2009 1:57 pm

Does anyone feel like there husband does not understand all the work involved in homeschooling. My husband works 12 hour days and feels I should do everything that entail the house, the housework, the bills, the schooling, and have no help when he gets home. Is that fair. I am with the kids 24/7. Do I desearve a chance to get out without the kids to go to say Walmart or something. What do you think. I feel unappreciated. I have three children 4,6 and 19.

The 19 year old can do all the housework, laundry, etc., freeing you for school, groceries, etc. plus free time to recharge.

When I was 15 or 16 I had to wash dishes, do laundry, take out the trash, etc., which I didn't enjoy terribly much, but didn't scar me for life either. I second the idea of having the 19 year old help out.
