Hun, parenting is a full-time job. Not a piddling "40-hour-a-week is full time" job, but one that NEVER stops from which you NEVER can take a break. That's PARENTING, not mothering. My DH goes out to work, when he's home he "relaxes". Yes, he does help out, but he sees the house as my work and doesn't think I should get a 6-hour break every evening before bed, nor should I get weekends off. Yes, if I've been up more than an hour he'll agree to get out of bed and help re-settle DS, but I've still done up to 2 hours on my own before that. He "helpfully" will remind me that screaming at DS to just shut up and sleep, it's one in the morning and I've had no sleep doesn't work. Then goes back to bed. Where's my time off? He gets it!

Anyway, my PoV is that I've trained myself to be selfish. He gets computer game time for HOURS if he wants it. Why shouldn't I be able to sleep some nights? Or at least stay in bed every once in a while.
