[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look I used to have a lot of rage about this- a lot. Then I figured out that I want the control. You can’t have it both- either you do it yourself and control it or you pass it to DH and cede control. In my case, if I cede control, DC would have the iPad all day, chicken nuggets every night, may or may not have childcare, would go to bed at 11 pm... just easier for me to do it bc I need the control. [/quote] That’s not control. That’s about not not neglecting your kid. There’s a difference. That you can’t see that is sad. [/quote] A lot of women say this as defense mechanism. It’s much easier to say you do everything because you want control than because your kid would be neglected in the care of her father. [/quote]
