[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find something sad about infants being taken away from their birth mother and then being raised by a single man. Maybe I’m just hormonal but infants need that warm, female, maternal energy that you can only get from women or birth mom. I’m not saying men aren’t capable but I notice a difference in the way my own children react to male relatives as opposed to female. [/quote] To me that says your husband is distant or even abusive and doesn't shower the kids with affection like you do. So they look to female relatives to model the same attractive behavior.[/quote] Actually it’s quite the opposite, my husband is great with both of our children, helping with feedings, changing diapers and anything they needed. Our children love my husband and they’re quite close with my parents as well, but there’s just something about maternal energy that they tend to gravitate towards especially when they need comfort. I’m speaking of infants, not older children, and I never said men aren’t capable but their energy is just different. I don’t think AC will be a bad parent by any means, he certainly has the money and time to do the best for his child - but all other things being equal I think infants just tend to gravitate towards women. I’m also not saying all women are warm and maternal, some certainly are not and is it better to be raised by a nurturing man as opposed to a cold woman, yes of course it is. [/quote]
