[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The most problematic statement you made was how you're soooo upset because he doesn't want to coach. You have extrapolated that out to he hates being a father.

You have a set checklist on not only what a "loving father " has to do, but what he has to LIKE to do. He's not you. He doesn't have to like to do any particular thing. I personally think all those kid sport things are terribly tedious. I do what I have to, but I also would duck out on practices if I could. Parents never went to those things when I was a kid - they went to big games, band concerts, and other performance nights (and one night, not every night if the show was multiple nights). Parents carpooled us to practices and rehearsals - one would drop off, another pick up. This was not a Big Thing, and no one was pining for their parents.

So yeah, he's a bit whiny if he's really already doing those other exercise activities, but maybe HIS idea of being a dad involves hanging out with his kids and not doing a whole lot of anything. That works for a lot of people. [/quote]
