[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many husbands do you know who are fully competent fathers of 2+ children? Or any children for that matter? [/quote]guy here- answer, every single one of my friends [/quote]

Haha The real question is would their wives agree with you?

+1. These are the 20% types who claim to do 80.

*1x/year[/quote]People like you are so insufferable. Just because you married the wrong guy, not everyone else did. My friends are phenomenal dads, they just are[/quote]

Good to hear. All the studies beg to differ. Believe me or don't, it is what it is. Sorry that makes you mad (imagine how the wives feel).[/quote]

Show me the studies that say that no men are competent fathers. I'll wait. [/quote]

DP I think the issue is "most" men. Not all.

That's not how it was phrased though. The PP wanted proof of ANY good men. Someone provided it and they called him a liar. Then they said that ALL the studies said men are bad dads. If I can name 10 excellent dads/husbands out of my friend group, I'm sure others can as well. In fact, I know my friends who live in other areas feel the same about the dads in their friend group. We pick quality men and quality friends, so it's not surprising that we would be seeing this. If the sample size is all men who have fathered children, then yes, I will give you that at least 51% of those probably suck. Figure a good chunk never see their kids, some are abusive/have mental health issues, some are just jerks, and I'll easily give you that "most" men are crappy fathers. But I grew up surrounded by amazing dads and married one and am friends with many. So the other percentage (I'm not even going to argue 49%) are good dads. It's tiring and frankly insulting that people will continually argue with anyone who says they know good dads (but but but you don't know them well enough, but but but your standards are just so low, but but but they weren't always that way or they won't always be that way, etc.).[/quote]
