My question is...

Why do y'all put up with husbands that won't help out? Not even do the yard work? I don't get it. I'd throw my husband out on his a$$ if he didn't help with ANYTHING around the house. I mean please, he lives there too.

As for my family, we have 3 children; 2 teens and 1 youngster.  They ALL 3 help out; the little one mostly in the yard helping Dad, but the other 2 help with the housework; they do their own laundry; clean their bathroom; clean the kitchen after meals.  And they both work; my daughter goes to school and works PT at a FF restaurant.  My son is out of HS, but works a full time job in between semesters at college. I am so blessed!
