Laundry gets even easier when you make the kids do all their own laundry so all you have to worry about is yours and the towels. ;-)

It's hard to do laundry only once a week if the family has two or three kids, though.

No it's not, I did it for years, and didn't have another parent to help me with anything.

I have two kids, both in sports so a lot of uniforms that need to be washed/hung dry separately from the rest of the laundry....I would say about 6-8 loads are done each week, it's not the time consuming, ime.

Well, I didn't do laundry once a week when I had a kid living at home. As my earlier post explained in some detail, actually.

So to get back to my point - laundry was only an example - do you agree or disagree that if you or your DH had full time jobs outside the home and two or three young children who were in daycare 50 hours a week, you might have a higher stress level than if one of you worked less or had a more flexible schedule?
