keith7 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 So, we have a 2 years old boy that I only take care 3 days a week (3 days sent to nursery and 1 day left with her for my day out). I don't work/earn anything to support the family, and don't seriously plan to do anything about it. Most of the time I do the cooking for dinner and lunch (never for breakfast), do the laundry & ironing. And mind you, looking after a toddler is tiring... Sometimes I left them home for a holiday along with my buddies out of province, and planning to join my buddies for another holiday away for couple of days. Now she complaint about my new holiday plan with my buddies that I didn't at the 1st place in my mind think of having a family holiday with them along instead. By the way, I had done the same in the past; left them home and joined my buddies for trip outside Bangkok and outside Thailand for few days. What am I? Is it too much to do that?

billd766 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Part of a marriage is sharing everything including looking after children. You say that she is working and you are not, so she is the breadwinner. Who will look after the child if your wife is working and you want to have another holiday with your mates?

You need to choose between your "buddies" and your family. Where does the money come from to support you and your holidays? You want everything your way without any responsibility. It is time to grow up and accept that you are a father, a husband and accept that your days with your buddies are coming to an end. Will they support you if you have no job, no money and no interest in getting either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkpanther99 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 You my friend are living the dream. I am the sole breadwinner in our house but I would love to be a stay at home dad, especially now I have Expat TV. Instead I'm working 60+ hours per week. Sounds like you've got it sorted to me.

ironbark Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Very clever piece of satire and discussion Keith7. Yes there is a big difference in our attitude to the gender difference. Because you described the person as a man, many were critical of you. If you said the person was female then comment is likely to be much more. Point well made.

seancbk Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Will the response be any different if i'm the wifey instead? My mind boggles that you would even consider going off on holiday with your mates and not take your wife. If your wife is earning the money the very least you should be doing is supporting her by doing all the housework, all the grocery shopping and looking after your kid. And your boy is 2 years old, I hope you are putting in maximum effort to get him speaking English (and your native tongue if you are not a native English speaker) otherwise unless you speak Thai you'll end up being unable to communicate with him.
