Let’s not put a label on this (or should I?)
Women are well known to carry a lot of the mental load around in a family - like where the clean socks are, whether a birthday present has been bought for little Ted’s party or whether you’ve paid for next week's school trip. Labels can take one thing off the never-ending to-do list because no one in your household will have an excuse for not knowing where things live and minimising the subconscious list rattling around our heads is one of the things I strive for because the list is long enough!
