Honey, what if you participated a little?
let's talk about it
If you want to change things and especially avoid the tantrums, it's time to tell him your tiredness. Do not scream, do not burst into tears, talk to him calmly at a good time. He must understand that it is serious, that you do not just laugh for pleasure, that you are neither his maid nor his maid, his wife to do anything or his personal shopper and that he must switch. Faced with these accusations, he will inevitably find excuses and tell them without waiting ... You do not think it would be so easy ?!

"I do not know how to do." Everything can be learned! No need for an engineer's certificate to vacuum and make a race list does not require an exceptional IQ! By putting his own, being a little more curious and a little more present, he will learn very quickly to master all these tasks.
"It's only for women." Breathe a blow, no, do not throw this lamp at him! It causes you to destabilize you. Just ignore him, close to glaring at him and slipping a hammer into his hand. As long as he did not hang these pictures as you asked him two weeks ago, you have nothing to do with him.
"I work hard, I do not have the time or the energy." Do you work too? Make him notice the inconsistency of his words! And he is warned, from now on, the chores, it is also for him! You do not work ? It's not because you do not go to the office every day that you have to accept everything! Establish a balance: make the biggest because you have more time and leave him some small "pleasures" for the weekend!
"My mother took care of everything." His mother is his mother, you are you. He did not marry his mother as far as we know? He does not live with his mother? No ? Okay, so he will not get that argument out of you, or he may regret it. You could let yourself go to look like his dear mother if he continues to do his innocent ...
Battle Plans
Would you like him to realize once and for all the magnitude of the task, of what it is to do everything at home? And for that, you have to use the strong way! Exchange the roles for a few days, he will see what it is and will surely not hold the same speech!
He finally agrees to make an effort? Try to share tasks: everyone puts on theirs. You shopping, cooking, laundry, ironing, dust. Him the dishes, the vacuum cleaner, the windows, the DIY, the maintenance of the car. Everyone's formula!
But finally, the best solution is to do most of the chores for two. The races hand in hand, cleaning singing at the top of their lungs, cooking one cuts the onions while the other puts the fish in the oven, in the evening Madame gives her baby bath while dad learns to read at the big one. All these tasks done in duet will also have the funny habit of bringing you closer and give a new flavor to your daily life at two ...
