Every night, either my wife or myself gives our kids their nightly baths. It’s always a chore but none the less, must be done. However we barter with each other to see if we can get the other person to bathe the kids. The bartering process often goes like this:
Sara’s Night to bathe:
Sara: UGH, so not in the mood to give baths.
Stefan: Sorry babe, it’s got to be done and its your night.
Sara: Oh yea? I’ll give you sex in exchange for bathing the kids
(Stefan picks up kids, dashes up the steps and bathes are done within minutes)
Stefan’s Night to Bathe:
Stefan: (sigh) Alright kids, lets go get baths done.
Sara: Have fun.
Stefan: Hey, I’ll give you sex in exchange for bathing the kids tonight…
Sara: …
Stefan: I said I’ll give you sex in excha…
Sara: …
Stefan: …come on kids, lets get baths.
Do any other couples with kids go through this process or are we just a weird, messed up breed of parents?
Not only are you a weird, messed up breed of parents – but at no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Okay, a simple “wrong” would’ve done just fine.
