"It started with the 'Sh*t I Do' List. Tired of being the 'she-fault' parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky realized that simply identifying the issue of unequal labor on the home front wasn't enough: She needed a solution to this universal problem. Her sanity, identity, career, and marriage all depended on it. The result is Fair Play: a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers couples a new way to divvy up domestic responsibilities. With four easy-to-follow rules, 100 household tasks, and a series of conversation starters for you and your partner, Fair Play helps you prioritize what's important to your family and who should take the lead on every chore from laundry to homework to dinner. 'Winning' this game means rebalancing your home life, reigniting your relationship with your significant other, and reclaiming your Unicorn Space--as in, the time to develop the skills and passions that keep you interested and interesting. Stop drowning in to-dos and lose some of that invisible workload that's pulling you down. Are you ready to try Fair Play? Let's deal you in."--Back cover
