So tonight in my blog I vented about dh and it backfired! I realized I was scorekeeping again. I do this all.the.time when was th lasttime you did_______. insert said chore here. So I am wondering do you scorekeep? Has it led to arguments? What is your trigger the kid(s) housework, or something else? Just wondering my blog is new and I only have a few friends that read it right now so I thought I would ask you all. Thanks for playing! Oh my trigger is always housework, DH is a great dad it's the DH part that needs work sometimes.

We scorekeep backwards.  We make ourselves feel guilty, will I didn't do _______, then DH says but I didn't help with _______.  It is kinda strange, it leads to arguments with us but arguments about how the other shouldn't feel guilty about such silly stuff.  Good luck, though.

Do you have a link for your blog?  I would love to read it!  And yes sadly we scorekeep.

Wed notdead!

Unfortunately, yeah.

I think what causes it is that we both feel like the other person doesn't understand what we go through daily and how hard it is to do what we do. For him it's working for me it's SAH with a baby. 

I'm trying hard to change that about myself, though, because I do it WAY more than he does.
