Maybe you and your partner constantly argue about how the dishwasher is loaded.
Or perhaps you get frustrated by how your definition of “tidy” doesn’t match up
with theirs. Or they’re grumpy that they have to re-fold the laundry because you
didn’t do it “right.” Or one of you is resentful of the fact that you simply do
more. The list goes on. Splitting chores — and especially the “who does what?”
of it all — is one of the most common sources of marital arguments. Those caught
in the push and pull of household labor arguments would be wise to sit down and
perform a chore audit. We get it: It sounds boring. But it’s a huge help.
