[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never talked about it with my husband. I’m sure he realized that at some point it would happen and that I’d deal with it. [/quote]

Why should 100% of it fall on the mom?  Thats very sexist.[/quote]

What girl wants to discuss her period with her dad? He has zero experience because it is about sex.[/quote]

My DD?  I mean she doesn’t particularly want to discuss her period I don’t think, but “can you grab me some pads - I am out” or “my cramps are really bad - would you rub my back” is addressed to whichever parent is nearby at the time. [/quote]

Buying pads is so burdensome? Feels like you are trying too hard to make sure you bean count fairly.

What?   Where did you get burdensome from?   My DD asks whichever parent is around to get her stuff she needs, to include period supplies.  Your comment makes no sense[/quote]

Then 100% of what is falling on mom? What is so onerous about this that it must be shared?[/quote]

I honestly don’t know what you are trying to say.  Some poster asked what girl wants to discuss her period with her father.   I said my DD because she turns to whoever is around when she needs help.  Like wanting period supplies (or pencils or whatever).  My DD would never consider not telling her dad that her period had started just like she would never keep that info from me.  [/quote]

Read what you’re responding to. This isn’t hard.
