Dinners with girlfriends are my window into married lives. Children dictate at least 12 years of full-time parental activities. “I have no idea what to cook this week,” said a woman who has cooked three meals a day for a decade. “You go to bed at nine?” said another woman who spends every evening getting her young kids through bedtime routines after a full day of work and making dinner. During spring, summer, and winter breaks, activities are researched, planned, and paid for in advance when kids have no school. Plus, husbands have their needs, desires, opinions, and demands.
