AITA for being embarrassed of my husband?

I’m the breadwinner- and by breadwinner I mean we can get our bills paid so we’re not rolling in it or anything.

My husband basically refuses to work. We’ve been together 16 years and I can’t even remember him holding a job for more than a couple of months and the jobs he has had are basically minimum wage.

Here’s the thing though: he takes care of the house. He cooks, does laundry, dishes, yard, etc. I don’t ever worry about any of these things, but I do have to take care of any errands, shopping, things for our kid, etc.

ALSO our kid is 13 year old so there’s no reason to have a stay at home parent. And when it comes to school functions, sports, etc for the 13 year old, I end up taking care of it because we only have one car.

I never know what to say when people ask me what my husband does. Uhhh.... he works from home... doing a ... thing.

SO AITA for being embarrassed of him?
