There was a comment earlier that Steve and Rach are lazy. I disagree Rachel is up very early in the morning for work, does all the housework, does the shopping for her family and her inlaws while Steve waits in the car, cooks most of the dinners and then goes back to work. I have never seen Steve hang out washing, or use the slow cooker for meals it's all Rachel no wonder she falls asleep on sofa on the evening!
I stand by my comment.
I am not saying that Rachel is not hard working in regards to her actual job and the things she does around the house. I think everyone can see how hard she works in order to provide for her family.
However she is LAZY in regards to her children.
She like Steve puts going to the shop ahead of Lacey's education. Im pretty sure she made Lacey's timetable, it looks like her handwriting.
When Steve can't be bothered to cook, she doesn't step up and cook dinner.
She never gets Chloe dressed and does her hair unless it's a school day.
She doesn't step up and tell Steve to stop recording Sophie!
She makes nasty remarks about Liams weight.
You can't just blame Steve for all of this, she is the mother. Just because we don't see her, it doesn't mean she isn't there.
