Advise this woman how to cope with lockdown
It's time for you to all be agony aunts or uncles. This is an actual letter written to the I paper. Lets see how you would advise her.
I am 45, married with a 10 year old son. I know everyone is going through this but I am absolutely sick of my husband. We both work long hours full time so usually the childminder takes our son to school and picks him up at hometime. and we have a full time cleaner to keep on top of chores.
Now all the childcare, cleaning and washing has to be done by someone. And it seems to be me. It is driving me mad and I am constantly having to nag him.
Last week I caught him in the garden with a beer when he was supposed to be doing what the gardener would usually be doing. I hit the roof.
We are both worried about our jobs. I am emotionally exhaused and if I lose my job we won't be able to manage on one salary. How can I get him to help me?
