[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - you have done a wonderful thing - you have made me value my husband SOOOOO much more than I remember to do on a daily basis.

You're a neanderthal but you've done me (and my husband) a service.

In return I'm sending the most supportive wishes I can to your wife and kids.  I wish them luck.[/quote]

No kidding! I have a newfound appreciation for the fact that at least my DH can (and usually does) take our kids out all by himself, including preparing their food and getting them ready 100% by himself etc. And when we have babies, he basically takes responsibility as much as a nanny would, just brings the baby to me for nursing or if there's really something out of the ordinary going on. He loves to party as much as the next guy but he'd never think it's okay to drag along a 1 year old to a multi-day party, let alone one where for at least a day of that there would be nobody to actually supervise the toddler. And almost-2-years-old is really a prime time for attachment issues, being super quick to get into stuff that's not safe for them, etc.

I think one of the big issues with OP is that he's so clueless since he's never actually taken full responsibility for his child that he doesn't even realize everything that's involved. It's like he doesn't even know what he doesn't know. And that's just the supervision part, forgetting about the fact that his parents seem like pieces of work. I agree that it's going to turn out terribly and then the mom is going to be blamed for everything.

Instead of understanding that most of us on this board have done the baby and toddler thing at least a couple of times already, and maybe we know a thing or two that he just has zero idea about, OP just assumes that we're women and that's the reason we don't agree with him. Not sure why he even posted in the first place. Clearly he's been so brainwashed by his mother that he's not going to change his position.[/quote]
