[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most people love the idea of having kids for many reasons but who really wants to do the unglamorous day-to-day work of raising them for years? I am a DW who can totally understand stepping out of, as Alice Walker called it, the role of "personal parenting" if I knew that my kids would be well taken care of. We all know mothers as well who farm their kids out to their moms or other people to raise. The only reason this does not happen more often is that society discourages women from doing it in a way it never does men. OP, More men do it because they more often can with impunity.[/quote] Or, Mom could just as easily give Dad full custody if she doesn't want to do it. I know many men who would gladly do it.[/quote]
