[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is everyone saying a disrespectful father gets the kids 50% of the time? Is that a new thing? Many dads don’t even know what size clothes their kids wear, what they eat, who their teachers or friends are or anything.  Do they just get divorced and then snap their fingers and grow up?
Sounds like a mess.[/quote]

Yeah and it sounds like the OP's husband wouldn't want split custody given his apathy towards parenting his kids. Although he might go for it 50/50 just to screw with his soon to be ex's finances and then hire a nanny to actually parent the kids.[/quote]

Is this 1960? What bizarre sexist comments. As a 41 year old father of two I'd say there is very little difference between moms and dads these days in regards to parenting. Actual parenting (clothes shopping, grocery buying, cooking, cleaning driving to sports, etc) and not just 'decision making' parenting is even amongst my peer set and I even know a handful of full time SAHDs. Maybe it's because in live in progressive Del Ray that I see this, I don't know but the idea of corporate dad coming home to a clean house, a full dinner and a horny wife as the norm is over.[/quote]

For you sure.

For the Op's husband who wants to hire a full time nanny to work with his wife a SAhm because that would absolve him from any parenting responsibilities yes he's living in Mad man era of parenting. Reminds me of when Don Draper hired his secretary to be a nanny when he took his kids to Disneyland because he either couldn't or wouldn't change diapers[/quote]
