Yes with the bathroom! I'm always so frustrated, like we are all ready to go and now tbe kids are losing it and ripping their coats off. Oh my god, this!!! It drives my crazy! And I don’t understand why it takes so long... just go in, do your business and let’s freaking go!!! Yes! At least warn me it's going to take a year so I don't have the kids all dressed and in the car! They don't respond well to sitting in their carseats in the driveway, so give me a heads up so I don't have to deal with the screaming while you do whatever it is you do. Now I'm getting all riled up lol

Truth. ‘Ok babe, be back in 20 minutes’ ...Everything MH does takes 20 minutes according to him. Regardless of the task; getting gas for both vehicles, going to costco, buying groceries, etc. Every.Single.Time. That and when we're getting ready to leave and he says 'I just have to run to the bathroom'... 30 minutes later, I've gotten myself and both kids ready and we're all late, he emerges from the bathroom like it was 2 minutes. So annoying OMG this is my life, it's like you're in my house or something. eta: I just saw that everyone else lives this daily, too. So I guess I'm glad that I'm not the only one? I ask my H somewhat frequently if something is wrong with him GI-wise. Apparently it's just Man Syndrome.

Well Pete has never done that bathroom thing.
Are they all constipated or what?
That would drive me crazy.

For me, I know it's not a 20 minute stint in the bathroom -- it's bathroom, make a cup coffee to go, finish reading an article he started, etc, but when I hear bathroom I think five minutes tops, so I get everybody outside and into the car.

They are probably on the phone whole in there. Mh takes the tablet with him. He knows Cadence won't go in, so he uses it as quiet time. Not fair.

In MH's defense he does have...issues, but I know he's just hanging out in there! I told him a bit ago I was going to shower and he asked to go first. He's been in the bathroom 20min and I have not heard the shower turn on..

Is this where I confess I hide in the bathroom too? Not when we need to be somewhere but I do get a fairly regular urge to go right around bedtime😉. DH knows I'm skipping out. He does the same when he needs to. We respect that we need a break and if it means on the toilet, so be it.

But i just sit on the side of thr tub amd watch netflix. But as soon as dinner is done he goes to the bathroom and showers and it's a 45 minutes process. I'm going to hide his phone and see how long it takes then lol.

DH takes forever in the bathroom because he sits on the toilet, playing on his phone and scratching his balls. If I take his phone away from him before he goes in it goes much faster. It’s not when we are trying to get out the door though, it’s when he gets home from work.

I mean, I don't see a problem with it but usually we tell each other we need a few minutes to regroup.
And hell no to that being when we're all supposed to be getting out the door.
