Husband ignores parenting responsibilities to workout 5 days a week, wife gives him a reality check and refuses to let him: "I would also like to have something for me"

We all have our hobbies. Everyone has something they love to do in their free time, something that gives their life meaning, something that they wish they could attribute more hours to, but unfortunately, life gets in the way. Maybe you're someone who loves to read, and ideally you'd be with a book reading for hours on end. You'd go through a book a week, regardless of the size. But is it practical? We easily become exhausted by the day-to-day, by our 9-5 jobs that it can leave little room for the time, effort, or brainpower to really focus in on a hobby.

When you have children, it's even more difficult. In the story below, the protagonist is a woman who feels in over her head with home life, parenting, her marriage, and work. It's not easy being a parent to two young children, and she's dealing with a 5 and 7-year-old. I don't blame her for wanting more help around the house. Read the full story below.

Of course this woman has reasonable complaint. If her husband wants to spend 90 minutes everyday in his free time working out, he's going to have to sacrifice something else. He can't just skip out on dinner plans or taking care of the kids in the morning, he can't just act like he's young and single as a husband and father.
