[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry but the “no mommy’s little helper” comment is so gross and unnecessary! How in 2023 are we still not raising our boys to be less helpful than our girls? My mind is truly blown.

Anyway I have the same age gap. I put the youngest one to bed first and then each of the oldest picked a book and we read them together. I also think screens is fine in a pinch.[/quote]

Eh there are lots of kids that love being a little mommy/daddy to younger siblings or little neighbors or baby dolls….but let’s not kid ourselves and pretend it’s equally common in boys and girls to love doing that [/quote]

And this is why the relationship board is full of women complaining that their DHs don’t help out enough. We need to raise better men![/quote]

Or we could stop expecting 6yo girls to have to be a secondary parent just bc they’re the oldest!  Everyone should help around the household, no one should have to be the surrogate parent if they don’t like doing those activities which I see way too many little girls forced into [/quote]
