We argue about silly things

Q My husband and I argue about silly things all the time. Mostly why I am always the one who does everything for the kids and why he never helps with the kids or house stuff even on weekends (he goes out every weekend). I know all couples bicker, but how can I stop us fighting? Sam, 41, by email A All couples argue about silly things like the washing up or who left the bathroom towel on the floor. But you two aren’t arguing about a small matter, you’re arguing about feeling taken for granted and being left to do all the childcare. You need to seek help and support in finding out what went wrong and how to mend it, before it breaks you apart. Try relate.org.uk.
