I watched my mother break her back living this way for decades. Even when she worked full time, she did 100% of housework, cooking, laundry.

When she died, my father assumed I would be taking over the "women's work". I haven't lived there for over 20 years. (He was not so politely informed he'd be doing it his damn self or paying a cleaner, obviously.)

You don't want this life. Trust me.
