[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m getting a laugh out of this “firsts” hissy fit. My daughter took her first steps in my office where she was playing on the floor when I was working late on something. She then refused to do it again for weeks and weeks, home or childcare. Getting to see the firsts are a roll of the dice. And again something I don’t see male parents told they should quit their jobs to witness…[/quote] I used to always ask men if they were going to quit their jobs when they announced spouses, partners being pregnant. Everyone acted like I was nuts. Then I would sincerely apologize and just explain that everyone asked me that so I thought it was a normal, social-type question. I stopped doing it after a while because people got really offended! Like, why would I quit my job, are you nuts? Well, I guess it’s fine to ask me despite all my years of education and career-building.[/quote]
