[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw my brothers do this to our parents too. But our parents raised us girls to put others before ourselves and my brothers to put themselves first.

My parents made us girls clean the house and babysit the younger kids. Our brothers only had to make their beds and do outdoor chores, like mowing.

It was no surprise when the parents got old, the daughters put in most of the caregiving hours. My brothers would turn off their phones when they thought an urgent call from the ailing parents might come in. They took care of themselves first as my parents trained them.[/quote]

Most of this over 40 were raised this way. It isn't genetics. People who are genetics want things to stay this way.

You're a man aren't you?

Do you deny that children are raised with different expectations wrt caring even in the year 2021?[/quote]

Not a man but relevant science background. Literally, there are no conclusive studies one way or the other regarding how much of gender gap around providing family care is biological and how much is social. [/quote]
