Many women enter marriage with hopes for a happy marriage, and for it to be an equal partnership. But over time, many find themselves carrying the bulk of the work at home and the mental load of parenting. Even when women work full-time and earn as much as their partners, studies show they still do more of the household chores and child-rearing. In fact, research finds that women spend an average of 2-3 more hours a day on unpaid labor than their male partners. This imbalance leads to burnout and frustration. When women ask for help, their pleas are often ignored or dismissed, leaving them feeling unseen, unloved, and disconnected. We do not talk about this to shame men, but to show them that this imbalance is hurting their marriage. Divorce doesn’t have to be the only solution—we can change these dynamics if we put in the work and shift the norms and expectations. It’s so hard to keep wanting the marriage to work when the weight of the work robs you of happiness and energy. We deserve partners who step up, share the load, and help us feel valued. #divorce #divorcedmom #mentalload #mentalloadofmotherhood #marriageadvice #chores #domesticlabor #millennialmom
