[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My bigger concern would be that parenting young kids is extremely stressful and it requires a LOT of pretending to be okay when you are tired, annoyed, overstimulated, etc. And sometimes pretending not to hate your spouse when in the moment, you want them to sit on a porcupine. And committing to not bean counting at least in the short and medium term. You do the pretending because you can see past the immediate discomfort, injustice and rage and you still believe in the long term vision. If someone can’t do that, they might be a wonderful person and a good partner, but I think coparent will be difficult.

Totally unflappable and did the lions share of the childcare after the baby stage and housecleaning. Running a household with kids takes routines and he was great at that. I don’t think you can assume anything along those lines. [/quote]
