[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Daddy didn’t parent 50/50 when they were married so hows he’s going to suddenly do it now? Make mommy do 90% of the work and just who up to play on his days? Riiight.

Your time to parent, teach and raise your children well have past. You failed. If you were so involved and influential to your kids it would be very provable. [/quote]

Well, as always, it depends.  Was Mommy a completely over-controlling parent that did not like the way daddy did things or was daddy a total incompetent buffoon.  If the latter, yeah, I can understand not giving 50-50.  But if it's the former, time for mommy to let go.  And you know what?  I bet you that for MOST folks, having a 50-50 split actually HELPS you become a better parent because you don't have the overbearing/controlling other parent looking over your shoulder disapprovingly.[/quote]

Isn’t that funny how some slackers don’t step up until they are the only adult in the house?  Pathetic. Get some respect. [/quote]

Mom wants dad to earn lots of money and stay home or work part time - look at PP comments.  So, then she claims Dad doesn't want to be involved or do his half but in order for him to make the income she wants to keep her lifestyle he has to work that many hours and not be involved with the kids.  So, sometimes Dad's cannot win.[/quote]

Clearly you are very bitter about whatever situation you are in.  Most posters are referring to parenting outside of work.  Does Dad step up and do things around the house, take kids to practices/lessons, help with home work, doctor's appointments, etc.?  Plenty of households now have female breadwinners and those breadwinners are often STILL doing more than 50% simply because they are women and it is still expected of them.[/quote]
