[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a stepmom. My husband does about 80% of the things on this list. The kids mom moved across the country and does not financially support them and she only sees them once or twice a year. Hasn’t seen them in eight months. This started when they were about 13. She doesn’t do Jack, except criticize their father to them while he does 99 percent of the parenting.

It sounds like your stepchildren’s mother is dealing with some kind of mental or physical illness.  
We aren’t really talking about outliers here.  Or “deadbeat dads.”

This thread is about normal moms and dads engaging in societally sanctioned behavior.  Moms have higher expectations placed on them.  [/quote]

Not by me or my family. Generalities are dumb and the reason why everyone has been arguing on this thread. Your opinion is not fact.[/quote]

Sure.  Every family has its own kind of micro culture.  
But if you talk about the culture at large, men behaving like this is acceptable.

Just like you and your family may not find homosexuality acceptable.  It is, nonetheless, acceptable to society at large.
