So I have a family that works with my hubby(the mom). Their jobs, to put it nicely, suck. They don't get paid enough and have way to much to do. It usually involves staying late or going back to work in the evening.
Most of the time my hubby just stays instead of going back. Lately it has been really bugging me because she will show up late and say that my hubby said we don't have anything going on that night. So, I chatted with the hubs and told him, he may not think that, but between homework, supper, general cleaning and what not, I have a lot to do EVERY night. Seeing as how he is not here most nights to see that-I just wanted to point it out to him.
I told him that I am going to start charging my late fees. I haven't done it because at first it was like once a month and like 5 mins. Well, ya give them an inch-I know
He says not to do that.
I added up what I would have charged so far this year, and for 1 of the children (they have 2) it would be $200
So for 2 that's $400
I don't know if bringing this up to him would matter. I don't want to make things any worse for him at work. And I don't want to fight with him about it either. Do I bring it up? He is always complaining that there are too many bills and not enough money(which I handle the finances, so he really has no idea).
Ok. I think I'm done venting. Thanks.

That's about what I was going to say. I'll stay out of your job, you stay out of mine.Tell him you wont interfere with his income if he does not interfere with yours.
I used to tell my dh, "I don't go to your work and tell you how to do your job, don't come home and tell me how to do mine."
