How Do I Find Time For Myself? Relationship Expert James Sexton Answers This Question And More 

She needs a break, Big Time.

Exactly! It's disappointing seeing working mothers end up with men who don't carry their weight around the house. She's your wife not your mother.

Ikr? And they demand 50/50 financially but yet don't lift a finger around the house.

Aicha S amen

+OfficialMyDo bruhhh why am hollering at your reply😂😂

Sadly, if his mother did everything for him he has no intention to do it when he knows a women will do it for him. Hence the situation she is in.

So good yet couldn’t keep his own marriage together..

Very sexy indeed

J Q you didn't hear the other side

OfficialMyDo I don't doubt that :)

I have to do the same and I'm married to a great strong black man. This is the problem with today's society some of you have no clue about inflation. Everything is going up with the exception of wages. If you're not rich pr born into money, you may have to sacrifice to get to where you want to be.

🤣

Prestige Hair that’s all fine and all but why are YOU doing all the sacrificing?

how is it

Welcome to Africa mentality 😂😂

He could be a good man and come into the marriage with different expectations. They need to talk it out

If they plan on marrying, she has every right to know

Because when you are in a relationship, you are also suppose to be securing your future and your children future also? It’s not just blind love?

Because they're stupid.

Ma Lo his last name lol

No kids.... amen!!

C Joe You probably have no gold to dog

Like what?

@@nthabisengmahlo6593 Being a single dad 😂 We aren't that amazing

There are. Roofing in July as a red head for example. Or building a house. But you don’t do those things 24/7. That’s the difference.

When you are a good one .....it's the hardest thing in the world ever ! You don't know it till you are one

Other jobs are 40 hrs and offer a 2 day break. Whereas being a mom is a never ending job.

Some jobs will cut you if you start cutting hours. However, I recently tried the method you mentioned and it most definitely did my marriage a world of good. You make a ton of sense.

Maybe she likes her job and/or maybe they need the money, some ppl need to have a purpose outside of the family. But why does she have to do everything re. the family/house duties? Why do women need to be perfect & men just need to be, not put any work in the family duties?...Why can't her husband take care of the child and/or dinner from time to time?...if her husband helps her get a break once a week, like the guy suggested, then she'll be in the mood to ''take care'' of her husband ;) win-win.

I wonder what her husband should do in order to be more present as a husband and father. I wonder why mothers are expected to do everything when kids have two parents for a reason...she can also feel neglected from her husband's laziness which can make her more prone to adultery too. Bet u didn't think that there was two ways to look at it n that the woman doesn't always have to do all the compromising. She has feelings and is entitled to a break too. Everyone does.

kemji24 i agree. I actually think she should quit working altogether. Or switch to very part time

W.T.F.

ignorant comment coming from a dude. i believe they're just acknowledging the fact that being a mother is simply a hard job. noone said the jobs u listed werent also hard. She mentioned her job. Im sure if she said paramedics, he would say the same. However, she mentioned HER job, which is equally as hard. U made no point

....being a parent is 24hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year...you are literally responsible for another human being that's dependent on you for everything. Do you have a child?...are you a parent?

Getaaseben Mulatu Bill Burr has a hilarious rant on a comedy bit saying the exact same thing that I completely agree on. Also how bout the single father's that raise the kids by just himself ... it's all the same, respect to both.

I am a mother and basically it is a job which never turns off. I think other parents are overwhelmed, when they don't get the support for themselves, as they would like too. As a parent, you are thinking and acting not just on behalf of yourself, but for your child 24 hours a day. Sleep deprivation is a common thing among parents with no help. I also work in one of the occupations you mentioned and it is a task trying to balance all the responsibilities, bills, quality care and time that a child needs to be a well balanced individual, that I desire my child to be. I'm of the opinion, that Mothers and Fathers who care about their children, say that it is hard, because as a parent they want to give the best to their child in both tangible and intangible means. It is always a juggling of resources especially time. I think you are trying to compare the danger and purpose level of the jobs you called, as examples to compare with being a mother. It is not comparable in the sphere you think it is, but it is just as challenging in the softer skills of life, such as time management and communication. What task can I give priority to now that would benefit me or my child? No one gives you a manual on being a parent. Each child is unique, even if you discuss your child with another parent, there is no guarantee that that method would work in parenting. In my "dangerous" job I can get a manual or find someone to help or solve a problem faster than I would for a child. It takes trial and error and a lot of faith and prayer to choose a parenting style that works. So my friend, when you decide to be a parent or not, just remember, everyone's journey is different.

Being a parent isn’t a job it’s an obligation
