I have recently (7 months ago) moved in with my boyfriend. He's divorced and has three children living with him (14, 17 and 19 all girls). He's 43 and I’m 21.
It has been a struggle since day one --- the girls are ungrateful brats that have gradually turned me in to an unwilling, beaten-down babysitter and maid. He works crazy hours and I actually have less quality time with him now that I live with him as we are both tired all the time.
I've asked him to cut down on his working hours so he can help with the girls, but he has been saying "soon" for months now. Nothing has changed!
How can I get him to help out with his daughters?
