[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, that's not what "default" parent means. Default parent means it is assumed you will stay home from work today to take care of the sick child. You're just another WOH parent whose child was up in the middle of the night, and now you're tired.[/quote] Ok, so what do you call it when one parent does 80% of the childcare, 80% of the housework, all the household finances, coordinates the household repairs & upkeep, all the details of the child's life (medical, school research and planning, etc), all the planning to see relatives (including inlaws to keep up relationship with grandchild), holidays, etc., PLUS works FT and brings in a bigger salary than the other parent? I'm perfectly happy to give is a new term other than "default parent." [/quote]
