I think the percentage is important in most cases..."try" is the first step and I think everybody tried already,at least most...how to split the chores is really depends on the couple...Well, posting my question earlier was piontless raelly, every couple is different,no one can answer it except the couple themselves.Like the mj posted her content, I don't know the situation between her boyfriend, her father and herself,because she only told part of her side f the story. I can't give any advise to her, nor does she needs it..: P, but when I saw "Aged Ginger"'s post, i was really interesting in it.Couldn't help typed in a thing(question) or two. Anyway, just let it pass.........The last thing i say is I like this id "Aged Ginger', very modest^ ^
