[@sharonstauffer7991]

I kinda think resentment towards housecare roles is missing the point. Relationships thrive when we care about each other. Whether husbands and wives take on traditional roles or not isn’t what matters. Serving family needs as a team is. Women can mow the lawn. Men can do dishes and bathe the kiddos, we all know that. But what matters is our heart. I cook and clean daily in and day out for my family because I love them and I’m not mad or resentful about it. My husband sees what needs to be done and does it too. He notices when my car needs its inspection and I totally forget about it or he cleans out the dog poop bin that got maggots in. Which things we do are irrelevant. What matters for a relationship is teamwork and love. And if you model that, children pick it up… my daughter notices the cat litter needs to be changed and does it for the cat. She doesn’t get mad that the litter need to be changed or at anyone else for not doing it. When we all get selfish, resentful and mad we lose something important in the point of successful relationships. Getting appreciation for everything is not necessary in a successful relationship because the contentment of teamwork is there. Just my 2 cents.

[@TeresaRaab-hb5co]

Good point made and nicely said.

[@Jen-Chapin]

You also have to know your partner and know whether they value recognition or not.

Hi Jen, I was so excited to see your new video pop up. I too am the primary cook so I totally get where you're coming from. You should also include putting all of the groceries away each week and cleaning out the fridge because let's face it, nobody else is gonna do it. LOL! You're awesome as always! Thanks for continuing to make content every week. I really appreciate you.😊

[@lillipad1313]

My husband and I both work full time jobs, I am the wife, house manager, chef, maid, nurse, etc. Entering into a traditional marriage (man and women) I was expected to take on the above roles even in today’s modern society and I am happy to do it, most of the time. 😂 Cooking for my family is how I show them I love them, but I will add, for my own mental health and the health and safety of all others involved my husband does the dishes.

[@debiwillis9045]

My husband always cleans up when I cook and I clean if he cooks...you should not be the only one in the kitchen

@@Jen-Chapinmy husband gets flustered in the kitchen. It stresses me out. I don’t work and he does so I figure we’re even. Haha

[@albionswede]

@@kristenevans4557 same here! Honestly it just makes more work when I have him do kitchen stuff because he is just kind of clueless and get's really flustered when I ask him to cook. OTOH, I'm the same way when dealing with car stuff, trash, yard work, plumbing, etc. Sure, I can and did do it myself when I was younger and single, but I hated every minute of it and I'm grateful that he takes care of all of that and leaves me to the areas of the house where I'm most comfortable.

[@kerryberry142]

@@debiwillis9045 I think it depends on the family, my hubs is all about loading the dishwasher a certain way no matter who cooks, so I let him. For us it balances out, there are things we both do in different areas, every area isn’t 50/50, like I’m the only baker, but in the end it does.

[@silviaandrea1535]

awesome video… My husband and I both like to cook. I used to do most of the cooking on the week days because he had a long commute and I worked part-time. He now has a shorter commute than before and I work full time so he does most of the week days cooking.We both cook on the weekends.

[@taracullen2449]

Just sent our daughter off to college, will be interesting to see how long I am in the kitchen now. Like you, I love cooking. I’m sure I will figure out ways to spend as much time as before. I’ll start keeping track!

[@alamryfarms754]

I think these are terms of relationships honestly. We have been married for 26 years and both have always worked full time. We have one now grown kiddo who still loves at home. We both cook, both clean up the kitchen after (whoever cooks doesn’t clean normally). There are so many helpful things my husband does around the house and I pick up slack in other areas. When we need to adjust, then we need to discuss it and adjust. It’s not always perfect and I joke that no one ever wipes down the counters but me, but there are plenty of other things I NEVER touch and he handles. I’m grateful for him for sure. But it’s just how we have chosen to work our relationships. I keep saying when it’s just the two of us we will do more meal kits just so we don’t have to think each week, what’s for dinner. 😂. We like having leftovers for lunches for work.

[@loveandlife4222]

Not a thankless job ~ we get the satisfaction of taking care of our children and our husbands. We know how much love is put into that meal and everything included with it. I also find great satisfaction in having a well organized clean kitchen that I maintain and take care of. That is a blessing to me as are my family and being able to feed them. ❤️

My husband and I both cook. Since I started a new job he has been helping out cooking and cleaning a lot more. But we always take turns. I don’t mind him in the kitchen if he wants to cook or do laundry! I’m like go for it! lol

[@albionswede]

People are being way too harsh on Mike at Pro Home Cooks. Being a chef/cooking is his literal job. The people praising him are wrong because they're acting like he has a whole separate full time job AND cooking for his family every day. The people dunking on him for getting any praise at all are wrong because he's literally taking care of his family and cooking them amazing awesome food, much of which is now with food he gardens himself. I hope you're not dunking on him, too, by showing him alongside the "congressional dad's" thing, and commentary about how dads get all the credit (which you said you agree with). Honestly put me off the whole video. This is not true of real life and it's insulting to women to frame it like this, as if we are so fragile that we need to be applauded for all the normal stuff that needs to be done.

[@Jen-Chapin]

I am not dunking on him. I think it's an interesting conversation, that's all. No one has ever called me "wife of the year" for cooking for my family.

[@albionswede]

@@Jen-Chapin But there are tons of comments on most of your videos praising you for what you do for your family. You deserve that praise 100%! I just don't think we should be putting down men at the same time we praise women for taking care of their families.

[@clairecasey5571]

I didn’t take it as Jenn putting him down , just pointing out how gender biased we are about cooking and cleaning.

[@99zanne]

Ok, my best thought about women’s liberation? It gave us the freedom to hold TWO full time jobs! If you add up housekeeping, meals, child rearing and help mate time, all together it actually exceeds full time employment … and you do KZbin, TOO! I am always amazed by your talent and drive. My opinion is, generally speaking, that men simply don’t care about their environment or their meals in the same way women do, and as a result have no interest in homemaking. I made my life easier by keeping my meal plans season to season and reusing them. I also keep the recipes for each plan with them and the ingredients list too. I’ve added enough plans that we can go 3 weeks without repeats and that means we don’t get tired of the food, but I’m not reinventing the wheel either! And I am HAPPY to pay for Walmart Plus since that saves me 2-3 hours a week, and the aggravation of store and traffic! TFS!

[@kerryberry142]

I spend a lot of time in the kitchen, often by MY choice, I’m married to a chef so he cooks more than I do, but there are things that balance us out. I don’t do yard work at all, but I garden, I do more cleaning but he always cleans the kitchen, I don’t take the trash out but I handle groceries, etc….it balances out for us. Every task doesn’t have to be 50/50, but when it’s all done it’s pretty equal here.

Great video, I did all the cooking for years but my husband is a big help now. He likes the instant pot and the air fryer. He bbq’s to. If we feel like pizza or Chinese we order it. Mexican food is not something we grew up on. So we have tacos and taco salad. They would be boring for you😂 He can be picky. I cook beef dip and seal vac. Teriyaki chicken, cook it and then seal vac. Etc. I make spaghetti sauce that is thick with ground beef. After watching videos where everyone buys Rayos marinara sauce from Costco. I tried it, bland. Had to doctor it. When I make lasagna, the sauce is thicker with meat and I cut mozzarella cheese in about 1/3rd of an inch. For the inside and top. I scramble fry ground beef and keep it in the freezer. I use it for quick meals. Like shepherds pie. But I have learned many things from you. I have bought different things you use. And I love your videos. Your personality, wit, your like a friend to me. So keep the videos coming lady. 🇨🇦💕👍🐶🐶

[@stephanielang3322]

I’m grateful my husband does 90% of the cooking, however that doesn’t get him Husband of the year anymore than my doing all the laundry, toilets, dusting, floors,etc…gets me wife of the year. Chores - we all do em!! No awards other than a clean home and good meals

[@bethanystoppel7660]

Primary cook, cleaner, and grocery shopper. If we grill hubby will cook the meat but I still prep it and do all the sides. Also pack lunches for our family of 3. It's definitely a thankless job most days.

[@risasklutteredkitchen1293]

Prep work really helps me during the week. I just got a new air fryer today and decided to do all my prep cooking in it. I have marinated and cooked chicken thighs and breasts, asparagus, baby broccoli, I washed all my produce. It took a couple of hours but now I have cooked meat and veg for the week. Less cooking and cleaning during the week when I am exhausted.

I put the menu on the fridge and the kids picked what we were having for each day. And if someone didn't like it too bad because they had made the menu..I got tired of the no we don't like that etc...but, it worked for the most part. And I had my grocery list according to the menu they chose. That was in the 90s before internet that wasn't dial up, we went thru cook books etc..but, my kids can cook. And meal plan..

I think if the dad volunteered to take over a role mom usually does, that’s great! No need to shame him. Same thing if mom took over a role dad usually does. My husband would give me “mom of the year” if I went out and changed the oil & replaced the brake pads on our cars.

[@mey7579]

I thought I was finished cooking for my family after my kids grew up and left, except for the Sunday dinners I did twice a month for my whole family. But life got crazy for me recently as my son is divorcing and he asked me to sell my house and move in with him to care for him and my two grandchildren, ages 10 and 9. So I’m now cooking several times a week! 😂. It’s a lot of work!!!

[@melbogard8702]

I am going to track my time in the kitchen, what a great idea! I will take a wild guess and say i spend around 30 hrs a week in the kitchen. I cook for my family and my son’s baseball team.

Well he won't get on camera lol. I actually don't think it's equitable most of the time.

I do the cooking in our house, and while I love good food, I don't really enjoy making it so I want to do it as fast as possible. To that end, I have three hard non-negotiables while I'm cooking: 1) No one is allowed in the kitchen while I'm cooking. You can blame my dad for that. He a was always in the way. if he wasn't in front of sink when you have a pot of boiling water, he was in front of the stove, oven or refrigerator. Love you, dad, but get the hell out of the way! 2) Clean as I go. I will not spend an hour or two cooking then eating only to be faced with another hour of clean up. No, ma'am! Paper plates are also my friends. I know, the envrionment but I'm not immortal with a multitude of lifetimes. Do I really want to spend this one and only cleaning? Nope. And, 3) My kitchen is closed two nights a week: Wednesdays we eat out of the freezer. This helps me make sure I don't have a lot of frozen leftovers junking up the freezer. The second night the kitchen is closed is Sundays. I cook a double meal (same food, I'm not crazy) so that we have full leftovers on Sundays. Eat it, don't eat, the kitchen is closed.

Does the 18 hours include the mental labor of monitoring food supplies, what needs to be used because it's about to expire or turn bad, special events/kid/school/work activities that require food shopping and prep? That's at least another two hours per week and even more during the holidays! 😮

Drop the mic Jen! In you logging the hours you cook and clean, etc, it occurred to me that it doesn't occur to me when I don't feel like cooking some days that I just need a break.
