[quote=Anonymous]I make more money than DH, and have a more demanding job, but at the end of the day it has to be the mom who does most school related and child related things. Sure maybe DH can stay home when they are sick (how often is that really, we had like maybe 5 days a year?). But for school volunteering, or playdates, or whatever when DH showed up, he was treated as the odd DH. First time, it was all cheers (what a great dad), but by the second time they were wondering where I was. In general parenting events are the moms, and dads are mostly not welcome. Coordinating for playdates and camps? Moms want to be texting and talking to moms, and carpooling with moms generally, We hate it, but see how the family we know where the DH is default is ostracized -- we accept our lot.[/quote]
