[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a dad and I have not only attended every kid birthday party, but have also arranged the event, invited everyone, and (needless to say) paid for it. So much "emotional labor" for me![/quote] Why are you putting “emotional labor” in quotes? When I plan a meeting at work, invite people, set up a venue, and set an agenda, I definitely consider it work. Most of the time it’s actually a lot less work than planning a kids birthday party. [/quote] DP. I’m a single dad and do it all. So I agree with the quoted emotional labor if he was trying to minimize or mock those who complain about it. I’m honored to serve my children and plan their parties. It’s no labor for me. If it is it’s one of love. They will be small for only so long. [/quote]
