Ask Amy: “Shefault” parent wants to rebalance home life

Dear Amy: My husband and I have been married for six years. We have two children — ages one and five. I struggle feeling like I’m supported at home. Most days I get up with the kids and start getting them ready for school. My husband will sleep in and either get up on his own, or I’ll wake him up. I really don’t want to have to add “get husband out of bed” to my morning routine, but that’s what I’ve been doing. He doesn’t think it’s a big deal — I can just “get him up earlier” if I want his help earlier in the morning. For me this is just a microcosm of our household — I do the work by default.
