[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did you bother getting married and having a kid?  You're already acting like you are divorced and dividing childcare expenses.  Oh well, good getting practice now since you are going to end up that way.[/quote]

OP, why did you bother to have a kid with another human being instead of just using a sperm donor?  You're acting like you expect the other person to have an equal child-raising burden in terms of both time and money .....  Most of the rest of the women in our society accept that they must do the lion's share of the work when it comes to raising children.  In fact, most of them take pride in it and think that it's their biological destiny to do this and that simply because of biology they are better at it than men.  If everyone else thinks that way, you should too.  You should be grateful that you are married even though despite the Potemkin village of your marriage "partnership" you are solo-parenting.  When your husband pays for "incidentals" like dinner out or "babysits", you can be surprised and thankful and happy, because if you were really a single mom, no one would be buying you dinner, bringing you flowers, buying you "push presents" and you wouldn't have free babysitting.

Just kidding, of course..... [/quote]
