About this title

Synopsis

It's no secret that the bulk of the household management and childcare still falls to women, even if they work and make equal or more money than their partners. It's also no secret that women want this to change. Here is the book to help them design a more equal parenting arrangement with their partner, to give them a voice and a plan of action. By offering questions for discussion, exercises, and negotiation points (like planning the social calendar), couples can redefine roles and assign responsibility, increase communication, and give a welcome boost to their love life.

With the humor, wisdom, and advise gained from over 75 interviews with women and men, Just Kiss Me and Tell Me You Did the Laundry will help women have a more balanced home life and a more intimate marriage.
