[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know why y’all marry these men.[/quote] When I married him, he was a self-sufficient adult who owned a home, was great at his job, planned dates for us, did his own laundry, etc. I never expected to be in this situation, and even when we had one kid he was pretty good. But something about the second kid... he just checks out a lot now. I have no idea what red flags I supposedly missed. I don't know what I could have done to prevent this beyond aggressively forcing him to take on childcare duties when they were babies. Should I have forced him to take a solo paternity leave, would that have helped? But then how do you even do that, it was not an option for us. I think he hit a limit on parenting and we didn't know what that limit was going to be until we exceeded it. He was doing fine up until then.[/quote] How was she to know that's how he would be? If you don't have helpful suggestions move along.[/quote]
