Nature abhors a vacuum and just like Mother Nature, so do most moms. So we swoop right in to do EVERYTHING for EVERYONE and then wonder why we're exhausted, frustrated, and resentful. But asking for help presents its own challenges. We have to give up control and accept that things might not be done the way we would do them or on our timeline. The first in an ongoing series about managing mental load, Allison and Jen reveal how a simple haircut led to a pretty intense discussion about dealing with "all the things," realizing that we set ourselves up to be victims/martyrs, and learning how to ask for and accept help. And in a shocking turn of events, Jen defends the menfolk.
