[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of men don't understand all of the work that goes into any of the minutia with being the primary caregiver or default parent for a child. And they have not learned how to sacrifice continually for a demanding and thankless child that is learning. For a lot of men, when this responsibility falls on them, it is a rude awakening.

A lot of women don't know what it takes to put a roof over the head of the family, keep the food on the table and the lights and heat on.  [/quote]

That's called having a job and paying the bills. Lots of women and men do that. Now plan a birthday for a 4 yr old. Plan out a vacation out of state for 4 people. Plan a move to a new house. etc etc.[/quote]

+1.  Having a job isn't that complicated.  Lots of women do it.  Managing the growth and development of several children is a much more complicated feat of planning and logistics.  My ex was befuddled by the idea that he would have to plan his own holidays, extended family relationships, medical care for kids, deal with their activities during his time, school issues, etc.  It took him years to figure out how to juggle it all, and he still drops a lot of balls.[/quote]
