(01)

Did we actually get a gift for Peter?

Any calendar event you plan, Fred understands, and helps you with the related mental load. Going to a birthday? Bring a gift. Kids swimming? Bring swim kit. Holiday? Book travel, location maybe packlist?

(02)

Is it your or my turn to pick up Emma?

Every weekend, and every day, Fred will send both of you an overview of what lays ahead. What is open. Who is driving what. No more “I thought you were picking up Emma from day care today…”.

(03)

I did not see that email...

Forward any email from xyz@school.com to Fred, and it will automatically parse the important parts to both parents. Asking “who is volunteering for the class outing next week?”

(04)

We did it!

Fred knows you are busy. And managing a household is no small feat. Fred celebrates with you after a busy month. And will show both parents how busy they were. Perhaps a good conversation starter on how the roles are divided.
