[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get it. Why did the author allow for all those one sided friendships with male friends? Why do DCUMers let their husbands be shitty coparents?[/quote] Because the truth is one person can't *make* another person do anything. We *let* them be shitty parents because that's what they are, and even if we did have the time and energy to teach them to be better parents, it wouldn't work. [/quote] Also, the divided energy of having to build awareness in a spouse while parenting the children and working...! Come on. It's too much. It's like "allowing" for sexism, racism, or whatnot. I didn't "allow for any of this. It's what we're faced with. [/quote]
