[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would have happily let my husband take the baby for a week without me.  Sounds like it's toddler age not a newborn. I would have loved a break from my kid at that age (or really any age)! Your wife sounds kind of anxious and honestly not very compassionate given that your mom is has a terminal illness.[/quote]

+1. I don’t get these moms who have children with men they don’t trust to make care of the kids. Dad will figure it out. It might not be done exactly how you want it done, but the odds the kid dies or is deeply traumatized from a trip across the world are fairly slim.[/quote]

Most people get it. 
It's easily over 2/3s of the dads out there. They're a parent in label only, and show up for fun time or what they're explicitly told to do. 
Not health issues, food cooking, appt making, packing for trips, minding the clothes fit, developing extra curriculars, finding relevant sitters or classes for child, teaching age appropriate skills, finding social development and kid friend playdates, maintaining proper stroller, car seats, everything sizes, checking child milestones/liasing with pediatrician, and so on.
