[quote=Anonymous]My husband is moderately involved. He’s very Type A, and hanging out with kids, letting them play and managing whatever comes up, is not his cup of tea. He struggles with letting kids do their thing, but being available if they need him. He either wants to be involved in whatever they are doing or completely involved in his own project. He IS great at taking the kids out and about to the zoo or a museum or whatever. And he likes to help them with athletics and coach their teams. He loves to sit and talk and pontificate with them too. Our oldest has high functioning autism (what used to be known as Asperger’s), and DH is great at sitting with him and talking about his special interest du jour. So, when our kids were babies, I would have said that he was not that involved. In fact, he kind of drive me crazy. But as they have gotten older, he has been more and more involved, and there are many ways that he is better with them than I am. [/quote]
