Are you fed up with being the ‘she-fault’ parent responsible for the bulk of this unpaid, invisible and time-consuming work? Organisational specialist Eve Rodsky realised that simply identifying the issue of unequal labour on the home front wasn’t enough – she needed a solution to this universal problem. Fair Play is the result: a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers couples a completely new way to share the domestic and emotional load at home. Drawing on 500 interviews with men and women, Eve has figured out what the invisible work in a family actually is and shows you how to get it all done efficiently. With its fun, game-like format, four easy-to-follow rules and 100 household tasks for you to share, Fair Play will help you prioritise what’s important to your family and help you work out who should take the lead on everything from the laundry to homework to dinner. With your home life re-balanced and your relationship reignited, you’ll have time to develop the skills and passions that keep you interested and interesting.
