[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A couple years ago an acquaintance wrote a piece for the NY Times about how she and her dh and kids did “family breakfast” because her husband, a lawyer, had missed so many family special occasions and birthday dinners because he couldn’t make it home on time. It was a feel-good, look how we’ve made it work piece but I kept thinking, if this were about how a mom missed her kids birthday dinners because she had to work late, she would’ve been crucified. [b]Lara B seems like a perfectly decent dad.[/b][/quote] Actually, she seems to be an above-deadbeat-level dad. She's active in her child's life but is unreliable, routinely misses family events, etc. [/quote]
