I agree with PP. My DH just does not realise somethings and needs to be reminded. I don't expect him to spend all his home time with our DD's everyday because I believe he needs some him time away from work too. But when I notice that he is doing it to much then I tell him.

I would mention it to your DH. I can't see why he can not take his papers with him and like PP have said, read them on the bus or during breaks. Maybe compromise and ask for him to do this 3 out of 5 days of the week. That way it wont be a big change for him (men just don't handle change sometimes).
